By A Customer
This review is from: Priscilla Hauser's Book of Decorative Painting (Paperback)
Mrs. Hauser's book is a wonderful step-by-step guide to learning basic brush strokes of decorative painting and complete information on supplies whether you paint in acrylic or oils. She explains EVERYTHING! Preparing surfaces, Finishing surfaces, everything inbetween and even explains why! She has covered different brushes and what they do, and supplies for whichever medium you decide to do and always what and why you need them. I love this book!!
