Not sure where to start with your beachscape paintings? These beautiful, simple colour recipes will see you on your way to paint glorious, sun-drenched tropical beachscapes in no time. As an impatient painter, I like to get as much vital information down as fast as possible. As a ersult, over the last 20-odd years, I've developed a series of "paint recipes" to help. As a professional artist, these recipes have proved invaluable to me. This studio reference guide has interactive features with accompanying video tutorials, and is designed so that you paint your colour mixes directly onto the pages. If you're not happy with the result, simply wipe off! I hope you have fun playing with these recipes, modifying them to suit your unique style and generally enjoying the dance with paint as much as I do. Mark Waller.

Award-winning quilter Noriko Endo discusses here the inspiration she finds everywhere in nature and the techniques she employs to create her unique masterpieces--naturescape quilts that have the look of impressionist paintings and feature trees, flowers, sunsets, lakes, birds, and much more. The stunning photos throughout the book showcase her renowned nature imagery, with each one accompanied by a notation explaining how Endo conceived of the idea for the specific quilt and the techniques she used to create it. Shapes and images in her naturescapes are created through her confetti technique, which involves layering colorful bits of fabric on batting, adding a covering of tulle, and then machine quilting the entire piece. She takes readers on a step-by-step journey through her process of choosing a subject and selecting colors, then designing, constructing, and finishing the work.
