Description

Draw 30 vibrant flowers in 8 easy stages - or fewer! Discover how to draw 30 delicate yet dynamic flowers in just a few simple steps with the help of esteemed botanical artist Janet Whittle. Choose from floral favourites such as shapely tulips, blowsy roses, wild red poppies and fragile bluebells, and build up the idiosyncratic shapes of each bloom in seven simple sketches. Starting with a basic outline, each of the 30 drawings culminates in an arresting, full-colour flower portrait that anyone can achieve in a short space of time. With its easy-to-follow landscape format, you can see the flowers blossom across the pages of the book, then recreate them yourself on paper or in your sketchbook. The book contains material previously published in How to Draw Flowers, 2008, and How to Draw Wild Flowers, 2010.
