Geekstress | Jun 27, 2023 | I get a lot of use out of this one. Very good book for skin tones and the trouble of painting shadows on faces. Love that it includes so many skin tones, any ethnicity is now much easier with a reference for all tones as most internet resources on painting skin mostly only cover Caucasian faces. Some really good resource pages about warm and dark shadows on specific parts of the face. This book has made a difference in my painting, the shadows now look like shadows instead of just dirty skin. For me this is was a solid purchase that I still use regularly for reference years after purchase. My one complaint would be that it really takes some work to find the correct colors and there is some research to be done if using Windsor Newton Winton as the tube colors listed in this book are not universal.

CanadianBookGal | Dec 15, 2020 | Drawing: Flowers with William F. Powell: Learn to draw step by step by William F. Powell is a book I requested from NetGalley and the review is voluntary. I love his art books because there is something about them that clicks with me. His teaching methods I understand easily. I first started my journey with art with one of his book. I wanted to learn to draw but I couldn't draw anything but a stick man but I got his book and I was able to draw a car, teddy bear, mountain man and more and it looked realistic and I learned all from his book! This book is like that too! It takes complicated items but he simplifies it down to something I can understand and draw! These are step-by-step lessons with lots of illustrations and instructions.
Some books I just don't get but him I understand! This is a beginner's book and I plan on getting it to add to my collection. Thanks so much Mr Powell, I would have given up on art of it wasn't for you!

Learn to Step by Step
Tools and materials, shading techniques and basic flower shapes begin this marvelous book on how to draw flowers. I Found it fascinating that from basic outlines of flowers that were rather abstract the artist moved on to intricately developed flowers. Twenty-four flowers were presented from abstract shape to finished product and I can see myself using this book to create the basis for future watercolor paintings.
Thank you to NetGalley and Quarto Publishing Group – Walter Foster for the ARC – This is my honest review.
