Paint Magazine (SAA)

With 60 images ready to trace and get the composition right before you start, theres plenty of variety in this attractive compilation.

Its also worth saying that the material comes from the What to Paint series, so, if you have those, you probably wont need this. If you havent, however, youll find Terry Harrison on landscapes, Wendy Tait on flowers, Geoff Kersey on trees and woodlands and Peter Woolley on hills and mountains. All these experienced and popular teachers include more than just the basics, with surroundings, perspectives and settings, providing images that should satisfy the most demanding student.

Customer Review

Another great release! This book has given me the renewed interest to try painting subjects other than landscapes, such as different flowers, woods and cottages. So many to choose from, with sketches in the back of the book to get you started and advice at the front of the book. You can even merge two pictures so that you have different flowers in one picture. Ive regained my interest in painting, have purchased new paintbrushes, Im going to try in both watercolour and acrylic paints, even my mum and sister have read with interest and want to give it a go. Id recommend this book as it offers great pictures and advice. Search Press have excelled again in releasing a great book.
