Publisher's Synopsis
For beginner and experienced painters who want to try their hand at painting flowers with acrylics. Ruth Alice Kosnick teaches you how to transform the beauty of nature into true color explosions on large canvases in her intensely colorful and dynamic style. Her vibrant painting style shifts between marked representationalism and abstract images. The vivacity and abundance of her floral motifs are accentuated by a loose style of painting. She teaches you specialized techniques for using negative space, overlapping layers, color, shape, and contrast to fill a canvas of any size with a beautiful edge-to-edge painting. Learn to paint 22 different flowers-roses, tulips, dandelions, sunflowers, delphiniums, snapdragons, and many more. By applying Kosnick's techniques to your paintings, make compositions of flowers and petals an emotional and sensual experience.
