Arranged in three chapters based on skill level, the book features 25 lovely projects, each showing you how to paint a flower in ten steps.

There are paint swatches for every plant, showing you the colours you need to mix for each step of the way and the finished painting serves as a reference to guide you.

With flora as diverse as a tulip, a magnolia, a bunny ears cactus and a passionflower, there is plenty to choose from and practise with, to develop your skills.
