Julie King will show you how to paint beautiful watercolour flowers using just 3 colours, 3 brushes, a plastic palette and a watercolour pad.
Julie King's book will build your skills through 9 easy exercises, starting from the simplest of tulips and working up to a stunning rose. Clear advice and step-by-step photographs show exactly what to do at each stage and how to trace and transfer the basic drawings from the finished paintings, which are shown full size in the book for this purpose.
I’ve been working through each project and while my final painting is no way as amazing as the one in the book, I’m so delighted with my progress! This is a great book, with all the steps and techniques clearly set out and excellent photos for each step. A great confidence building book for beginners, or for any watercolourist (is that a word?) who wants to give botanicals a try. I cannot recommend the Take Three Colours series enough!
