About this product

Product Information

The author explores three distinct genres of decorative folk painting - traditional strokework, bold painting and blending - demonstrating the brush strokes and illustrating the huge variety of finished styles which can be achieved with them. Traditional folk motifs, fine art themes, Art Deco designs, contemporary minimalism - all these and more are used as the inspiration for 20 handpainting projects. The detailed instructions and step-by-step illustrations show how each design is built up, encouraging readers to try their hands at transforming everyday objects or creating heirlooms and gifts. Guidance is also provided for buying the basic materials, preparation of surfaces, and the techniques of finishing.
