    • I love this book!
Easy instructions to follow, can't wait to make art.

    • Are you interested to draw Flowers with oils or acrylics?
In her book "Oil & Acrylic: Flowers" the artist Marcia Baldwin states as her goal: "... I hope to demonstrate how the principles and elements of art and design can be explored and experienced when painting flowers in oil and acrylic." She hopes that her paintings portray the joy and excitement of everyday life. The book is one of the 40-page books from the "Oil ... step by step" series, published by Quarto Publishing Group - Walter Foster. The book is divided into nine chapters: 1) Tools & Materials, 2) Painting Techniques, 3) Color Basics, 4) Working from Photos, 5) Working from Sketches, 6) Applying an Underpainting, 7) Taking Artistic Liberties, 8) Creating Texture, and 9) Enhancing Backgrounds. Baldwin bases her drawings on photos and sketches. The step-by-step approach, tips, information about the used color palette and information how to draw certain details help readers who want to reproduce her drawings or paint similar ones. The book is presented with great graphics and design. It is helpful and inspirational for beginning (and advanced) artists who want to draw flowers with oils and acrylics. I would recommend it in this case. It would make also a great present for them. Readers need to be aware that it is a basic book, an index and information where the needed materials can be bought are missing. Furthermore, it would have been helpful if the reference photos could be downloaded since the are of small size in the book. The complimentary copy of this book was provided by the publisher through NetGalley free of charge. I was under no obligation to offer a positive review. Opinions expressed in this review are completely my own. #OilAcrylicFlowers #NetGalley ... show more

I was disappointed that only 6 different flowers are featured in those book. The first nine pages discuss supplies, techniques & color charts/wheels. It does give step-by-step instruction. It is a large (13-3/4” x 10-1/4”) book, just very skinny.

    • Easy to Understand
This is not a big book but it makes up for it by easy to understand information and illustrations. The topics covered are : Working from photos, working from sketching, applying and under paint, taking artist liberties, creating texture and enhancing backgrounds. I found it instructive and very effective in describing the the way of painting flowers in acrylics. ... show more

    • great for beginning painters
This was a very easy to follow instructional painting book. I enjoyed painting the colorful flowers. Each painting was one or two enlarged flowers. I enjoyed practicing them on 4 X4 and 8X8 canvases. I would recommend this book to a beginning painter. I received this galley from NetGalley.

    • Absolutely no information about painting with acrylics!
I bought this book to learn about painting with acrylics, the title aluded to that. But, after reading the entire book, there is no information about that. It does look like it would be a good book for those artists that want to learn more about using oil paint. It would have been nice if when she posted a picture of painting a flower in oil with a listing of colors she used if she had done the exact same thing in acrylics. Since acrylics and oils are two different products with different names for each blue, red, yellow, etc., I have no way of knowing which paint colors to use. Very disappointed. ... show more

    • Oil and acrylic flowera
The book used oils and very few acrylics. It is not what I consider a step by step painting instructions.
