Ready to Paint in 30 Minutes: Flowers in Watercolour - Ann Mortimer - Ready to Paint in 30 Minutes

From Search Press, Ann Mortimer’s Ready to Paint in 30 Minutes: Flowers in Watercolour is a beginner-friendly paperback workbook designed to help you practise painting watercolour flowers in manageable, time-conscious sessions. With quick exercises created for 6 x 4 pads, it offers a structured way to build confidence with watercolour techniques while working through a wide variety of floral subjects.

Across 5 chapters, you’ll be guided through working with watercolour, using techniques for special effects, and developing colour, tone, form and detail. The book also explores painting flowers in context, including scenes such as vases and woodlands. To support a straightforward start, tracings are provided for every project, so you can focus on painting rather than drawing. Alongside the exercises, 3 full-size projects bring the techniques together, with subjects including poppies, magnolias, hydrangeas, lilies, tulips and roses.
