Paint Books

My husband has wanted to learn to draw since he was a child. These books, 1 & 2 were a perfect start for him. Thank You for helping me make a childhood wish come true for him.

Lynne Carver's Dreaming Pigs is a bizarre and fantastic novel about three people who conspire to steal a pig cloned especially to create organs harvestable for human beings, and who find themselves in for much more than they bargained. Witty, caustic, and offering a different perspective on the latest medical breakthroughs of today, Dreaming Pigs is highly recommended, entertaining, and occassionally thought-provoking reading.

Paul Campbell has really done his homework, gone out in the field, and spoken to many local people. He has contacted experts where needed, but he has great knowledge of the natural environments of California. This book must have taken a long time to research. The book is easy-to-read by regular people and yet a good reference for those who work with pigments as well. The photos are great; nice overview shots of pictographs and detail shots of the drawings. Lots of photos of Native Americans in California.

This breaks each technique (verdigris, liming, stippling, etc.) down into 5 to 7 steps. Each step is shown in a photos. The book is compact, but covers a lot in 224 pages. Some effects I hadn't seen before in books or in the brochures at paint stores. There is one showing painting faux sandstone blocks.
I can hardly wait to get the paint and try one of these effects. They are shown for a variety of surfaces (walls, floors, furniture, accessories).
Highly recommended if you want something besides plain ol' paint.

This book guides the reader through the process of children learning to paint with incredible insight into the child's thought process. Nancy was a mentor of mine at Boston University over twenty years ago, and I have used her ideas in every classroom I have taught in. Her insight into children and the painting process will surely answer many questions about the hows and whys of children's painting. I highly recommend this book to parents and educators, from preschool on up, who paint with children.

The best feature of this coloring book is the fact that the back of the page of each picture is left blank - so you don't have to worry about markers bleeding through.

I'm an older person and color as a relaxing hobby, however, I'm sure any child who is interested in fairies would likewise greatly enjoy coloring these pictures.

I only have a few minor quibbles - while nicely drawn, some of the fairies were a bit too thin looking and they seemed to have a tendency towards large feet, but that in no way takes away from the pleasure of coloring them.

The pictures are fanciful, featuring the fairies with butterflies and playing among the flowers, resting by a pool or interacting with an adoreable field mouse and that sort of thing.

30 nicely photographed designs with easy-to-follow instructions. The book showcases many different project mediums using a variety of decorative techniques and finishes. Also has an informative guide on the use of tools and materials. Wonderful book!

A great book for young children! Beautiful illustrations! Teach children their colors and have a great time with farmer dillo as he paints his barn
