Editorial Reviews

Amazon.com Review

Delicate florals, a dainty teacup, a childlike angel, and a Victorian Santa grace the seven lovely projects in Brenda Stewart's Victorian Decorative Painting. With a solid overview of preliminaries (understanding paints and other supplies, preparing surfaces, transferring patterns, and the specifics of handling acrylics versus alkyds versus watercolors), highly detailed directions, and complete patterns, the book provides enough information for the novice to wade in, yet the designs are intricate enough to interest the more advanced painter too. Surfaces include a wooden candle sconce, a wood box, a china vanity tray, and a china mail holder (Stewart confesses to a weakness for antique china). All the items can be mail-ordered from Stewart's design firm (address and phone number are provided), but the designs are readily adaptable to other surfaces as well, and the author even provides a number of suggestions along those lines. --Amy Handy
