Siriol Sherlock
Siriol Sherlockâ€™s techniques for capturing flowers and plants are beautifully simpleâ€”yet they yield remarkable results that earned her the 2005 Artists Choice Award. More than 150 stunning fine-art illustrations of both finished works and key stages of the painting appear throughout this exquisite guide, illuminating the instructions. All the various materials are covered, along with traditional and experimental techniques for painting wet-on-wet, capturing color and form, and adding finishing touches. Examine the details that go into depicting foliage and fruit, flowers in context, single stems, multistem arrangements, and even leaves and branches. The flowers bursting forth in beauty on the page range from tropical blossoms to a brilliant poppy.
