The Watercolour Feast is a lovely book to help you learn to paint fresh produce and flowers. Whether you do this for a hobby or fancy taking up art as a home business. This beginner guide encourages you to create your own images, by a teacher who lives in a cabin in the woods of Northern California.
Use with biodegradable watercolour paints & recycled art paper. And vegan watercolour brushes. Note some fruits (including lemons), vegetables and edible flowers (including marigolds) are toxic to pets, so keep them away for their own safety.
The book features 40 fun and easy tutorials. Learn how to hand-letter in watercolour, then paint fruits, vegetables and flowers. You will also learn how to create beautiful menus and place settings, and also gain inspiration from the author’s favourite watercolour artists. The book ends with 8 pages of watercolour paper to test your skills. A charming guide to celebrate the beauty of food and the natural world.
