5.0 out of 5 stars
Beautiful, simple projects & decorating advice,
By Angel Lee "Liocorno Amethyst Moonstone" (Cleveland, OH United States) - See all my reviews (VINE VOICE) (HALL OF FAME REVIEWER)
This review is from: Hand-Painting China: How to Design and Paint Your Own Beautiful Ceramics, Without the Need for Kiln-Firing (Paperback)
This is a wonderful book for learning to paint china using new paints that don't require kiln firing. The projects are both beautiful & simple to make. I also found the full-color photos to be very inspirational. About half the book is dedicated to helping you learn design & decorating basics, including using china in every room of your home. Different styles such as Classical, Victorian, Mediterranean & English are described. Fifteen projects with step-by-step explanations and photos follow. My favorites were an oriental bowl, spice jars & a country quilt vase. There is also great basic information on materials & techniques. I was surprised how easy, but impressive the verdigris & marbling finishes were to recreate. The supply list is also a nice bonus. I highly recommend this book for anyone wanting to learn more about ceramic painting. |
