The Best of Flower Painting: A Celebration of More than 150 of Today's Best Floral Paintings in all Mediums
Kipp, editor of more than 50 art instruction books, has gathered flower paintings from 133 contemporary artists for the best such collection to date. Artists' styles vary from precise botanical studies to lush pastels and oils, light-filled watercolors, and studies influenced by Japanese silk painting. Highly recommended for advanced artists who don't require step-by-step demonstrations; for the beginner, see Rachel Rubin Wolf's Basic Flower Painting Techniques in Watercolor (North Light, 1996).Copyright 1997 Reed Business Information, Inc.
