Good

I was able to learn a lot and come up w/ some additional designs based off of some of the pictures and instructions.

What a beautiful way to learn decorative painting!

Priscilla has done a wonderful job with this book! It is very informative, with step by step instructions for each brush stroke technique as well as gorgeous photos of each phase of the design. All that you have to do is follow her detailed directions, and practice, and you too can turn out stunning artwork! Everything you need to know is included in this book! It's just fun to page through and look at, as she is a very talented artist!

All you need to begin to learn in step by step instructions.

Mrs. Hauser's book is a wonderful step-by-step guide to learning basic brush strokes of decorative painting and complete information on supplies whether you paint in acrylic or oils. She explains EVERYTHING! Preparing surfaces, Finishing surfaces, everything inbetween and even explains why! She has covered different brushes and what they do, and supplies for whichever medium you decide to do and always what and why you need them. I love this book!!
