Review: Excellent book on how to draw botanicals which is hard for me - I loved this book, it is a great book to understand the craft and how to get good at it. I would recommend to anyone who wants to learn. Excellent information on pencils, what they do, how they work and how to use them. Strictly plants and flowers only. I love flowers but now I am into all botanicals, even fruit and veggies! For any Artist: Color Mixing Bible, by Ian Sidaway Vibrant Flowers in Watercolour by Soon Y. Warren is just off the hook Colour Pencils and Graphite: Ultimate Guide to Colored Pencil, Greene, which also comes with a DVD, excellent step by step instructions and lessons, this book is invaluable!! Colored Pencil Secrets for Success, Kullberg Coloured Pencil Solution Book, Gildow and Newton Masterful colour, Steinberg Colored Pencil Painting Bible, Nickelsen Paint Radiant Realism in Watercolour, Ink and colored Pencil, Ross Drawing Realistic Textures in Pencil, Hillberry For Watercolour: Water Colour in motion, O'Connor Painting Watercolour that dance with light, Kincaid Painting flowers with Impact in Watercolour, Collins Jean Haine's Atmosphere Watercolours Watercolour from the Heart, Nechis Those are just my favorites so far, I have a ton as I believe that you need to keep learning to stay fresh. _____________________________ Also, if you want to know about Color theory to get even better.... COLOR WORKS, the crafter Guide to Color by Deb Menz FOR ANYONE who wants to knwo about Color Theory this test breaks it down so that ANYONE can understand this subject. I learnt more about color theory in this book than all others put together because I now "Understand" the concept. While this book is for the textile artist, ALL artists should get it and is also has cut outs to use when choosing your colour palette whether it be for Fashion Design or Art.
Review: A number of good botanical illustrated books - Ok, now I've got a lot of books. A number of good botanical illustrated books. And a lot of well covered instructional books. THIS book gets 5 stars from me because it hits high on every thing I need for a book on 1. colored pencil art 2. botanical art. 3. product familiarity and coverage e.g. pencils and papers etc. 4. which colors to select 5. where to start and what to do. Beginners won't be lost and Advanced won't be bored. This book is for lots and lots of stages of development. I found myself, in the beginning, continually looking at the cover of the book to see who did this.......I was just so taken with how user-friendly it is. And if you don't want to use it educationally, it's just downright purty to look at. grin.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ One of the best I own - of many
*by D***P on March 23, 2019*

I cannot say that this book was written and developed for beginners but on the other hand beginners will get a tremendous about of information from it and by reading it you will only improve your skills with the colored pencils. The instructions were plentiful and exact and I SO appreciate (like others here) the fact that the author has listed the specific pencils used. I draw – black and white; pen and ink, and working with colored pencils in a bit new to me...this work was extremely helpful. Do keep in mind that this work includes examples of all botanical and not just flowers which was precisely what I wanted. I own and use dozens and dozens of book covering this subject (granted most of them are drawing and not coloring) but for both drawing and coloring this book is beyond a doubt in the top five I own – I have found it quite useful. As a matter of fact I ran across a copy of this one in our local library, used it a bit, and found I had to have my own copy. Being prudent (cheap) I want to be sure I my monies worth...with this one I did.
