Painting Acrylic Flowers A-Z
Painting Acrylic Flowers A-Z is just now being released! I am quite excited at this after the long and demanding process of actually creating the book.
I painted over 50 paintings for the book with a series of deadlines keeping me working almost all the time I was not sleeping or eating. Yes, I did stop painting and writing when I ate, which I suppose is quite decadent, but hey, we all have our little vices!
The book includes full color images from my paintings of 40 different flowers. Each flower has a palette list of paints needed, instructions for painting, and illustrations of specific techniques which are explained in a special detail for each flower.
There are additional sections showing other paintings which discuss the basics of setting up your palette, composition, troubleshooting, and other areas of interest to the painter. The price is $29.99 plus shipping by priority mail. I will autograph it for you as well.
For those of you who buy the book, please be sure to let me know what you think about it. I focussed on being as comprehensive as possible yet clear and concise to fit the space alloted. I am really pleased with the publisher’s layouts, which I think made the book beautifully enjoyable and usable.
For some surpises during publication, see Launch of My New Book.
Oh, this is awesome. My friend who loves to paint would absolutely erupt with glee with this collection.
Heidi,
Thanks for the compliments! And the holidays are coming if you need a gift for your friend…

Just ordered a copy from Amazon, this book will be a must for every budding artist. Wait till my painting friends see it.
Your work is so beautiful! Congratulations on your book! I would buy it now but I’m broke at the moment-the holidays will do that to you.:)
Best of luck in all of your artistic endeavors-from one artistic soul to another
