Vivienne Cawson's luminous painting style and considered use of
flat or patterned backgrounds gives her work a contemporary,
beautiful feel all of its own. Published in association with the
Royal Botanic Gardens, Kew, as a celebration of their annual Orchid
Festival, this stunning book teaches you how to paint a selection
of orchids in watercolour. The book contains a thorough techniques
section that guides you through Vivienne's decision-making,
colour-matching and painting process. It teaches you how to capture
form with speed and confidence, practise painting different leaves,
flowers, and roots and create different textures with paint. The
book contains exercises that will hone your skills and encourage
your artistic intuition, followed by three complete step-by-step
projects that feature a range of flowers in wild and still-life
settings. The paintings feature touches of watercolour pencil and
crayon, along with panels of gouache, which complement the delicate
watercolours. The book is interspersed with images from the Kew Art
Collection, showcasing the rich variety and beauty of this
much-loved family of flowers.
