Ten graded lessons to tackle beautiful colour in stunning botanical compositions.

Building on Valerie Price’s previous and highly successful book, Botanical Illustration: The First Ten Lessons, this next volume provides a practical introduction to colour and composition in botanical illustrations. Formed of ten graded lessons, each chapter teaches a new skill that builds upon the last, with subjects that range from red tulips and pink roses to blackberries and green foliage. Full of handy information, and with easy-to-follow exercises, the book includes step-by-step instructions that show you how to produce beautiful colour in your compositions.

This practical guide includes essential information on different watercolour techniques, how to arrange informative compositions and mix your own colours to achieve lifelike results.
