The Best of Decorative Painting
This book elevates the craft of decorative painting to its next logical level. Not just a manual on how to paint cute animals on slate, it gathers the work of more than 100 decorative painters whose style and commitment is much more sophisticated than the norm. Here, wooden boxes, cupboards, vases, and plates are adorned with accomplished florals, portraits, still lives, and landscapes, in a variety of media. Highly recommended for advanced decorative artists; the novice should begin with something like Gretchen Cagle's Decorative Painting Keepsakes (LJ 11/15/97).Copyright 1998 Reed Business Information, Inc.
