A GREAT resource for beginning and recreational painters!By Shannon Marie AdamsI bought this as part of our art curriculum for my nine-year-old homeschooled daughter. Over time. we plan to practice using a variety of media. and we decided that this year we were going to study and work with acrylics. There are 12 guided paintings. and the instructions are very clear - but even better. every single step of the instructions is accompanied by a full-color photograph of that step. which means you can clearly see how the painting progresses from one step to the next. The paintings are extremely cute and attractive to little girls. and even I think theyre all adorable. We have finished our first few paintings and were very pleased with the results. My ONLY critique of the book is that since this is the first time weve moved from pre-mixed "student" quality paints to artist quality heavy-body acrylics. I didnt know how different they would be. and I wish she had addressed a few tips on how to work with them. Other than that - which is really a very small thing - it has proven to be a wonderful resource. and I would absolutely recommend it to those wishing to hone their painting skills at home.0 of 0 people found the following review helpful. Great book for someone (or group) who want to learn how to paint!By JMfromNCI was looking for a book for my grandchildren to use for painting lessons from their Great Grandma. There were a couple in the book that were suitable. but it would probably work even better for a Wine Design party or for anyone who wanted to follow step by step how to paint something. The pictures were great and the directions were very clear.0 of 0 people found the following review helpful.
