The Decorative Artist
By:Yvonne Reese
Published on 2001-04-01 by Todtri Book Pub

Over 200 full-color illustrations. This useful and practical volume is designed for those who wish to give their homes a truly personal touch. The decorative skills explained and demonstrated in this book have been influenced by craftsmen of the past, including folk artists, housewives, canal boatmen, and others, who led busy lives and had no specific artistic training. With modern paints, the traditional techniques these people developed and mastered can be used to decorate any surface-including plaster, timber, metal, ceramics, glass, or fabric-with simple but charming and elegant motifs. After an introduction explaining basic skills and offering advice on preparing surfaces and choosing materials, instructions are given on the creation of an array of decorations using various designs. With easy-to-use patterns and step-by-step instructions and photographs, this book provides the ability to transform almost any object in the home into a thing of beauty that will be enjoyed and treasured for years to come.
