Trade Paperback 'Collins Flower Painting Through the Seasons' provides a year-long painting course in watercolour, and reveals that the seemingly quiet seasons of autumn and winter offer just as many possibilities for flower painting as the busy spring and summer months. This superbly illustrated book contains four sections covering the seasons, which are then divided into monthly chapters. Each chapter features one full step-by-step demonstration and a number of practical projects - some simple, some more ambitious - which means whatever time of year, you will be able to dip into the book and find a selection of inspiring painting ideas. Many of the projects can be repeated on different levels as your work progresses, to stimulate your imagination further and to provide greater challenges for the more experienced painter. This book includes:* 'Practical projects' relating to aspects of painting that are relevant to each month* 'Step-by-step demonstrations' for every month of the year, with alternative ideas for subsequent painting sessions and different levels of expertise* 'Varied subjects' including seasonal blossoms, seedheads, fruits, berries and foliage, from the hedgerow, orchard, vegetable garden and conservatory as well as the garden Whether you follow the course month by month or choose random projects throughout the year, Ann Blockley's stunning watercolours in 'Collins Flower Painting Through the Seasons' will ensure that the book is not only a practical guide but also a visual treat.
