What can I do with acrylic paints? How do I use watercolours? This inviting and inspiring book is brimming with answers to questions like these, and can lead even the most timid artist, step-by-step, through enjoyable, original projects. Organized thematically, it explores a wide range of materials such as pastels, watercolours and inks, and provides examples which show the reader how to get started and achieve excellent results. There is also helpful information about many different art materials, and a variety of simple, yet effective, techniques, such as printing with elastic bands, making wax resist rubbings, and ‘painting’ with tissue paper, are explored. This gorgeously produced book is an ideal gift for any would-be artist.
"The quality, style and simplicity of this deliciously attractive book should make it the faithful companion of any child, parent or teacher who wishes to make bold, exciting images." The Times Educational Supplement
