Painting Acrylic flowers April 6, 2008

You can not find many books for painting flowers in acrylic. Painting Acrylic Flowers A to Z, gives you different shapes, styles and colors. No disappointment here. If you want to get a more accurate drawing for your flowers you should get the following book The Watercolor Flower Painter's A to Z: An Illustrated Directory of Techniques for Painting 50 Popular Flowers. Both are very good buys!!

To date, I have read the book through twice and will get around to trying the exercises in the book. Well illustrated and comprehensive...encourages an aspiring artist to "give it a go".
