In Bloom: A Step-by-Step Guide to Drawing Lush Florals

Beau livre pour apprendre à dessiner les fleurs.

Lovely helpful fab book

I was fully aware of what to expect for the book content, as I had seen it through a very helpful youtube based book review. But I could only tell of the physical quality when I received it. The book is stated as manufactured in Singapore. The paper quality and print is exceptional. Thick luxurious quality paper, hence the book weighs quite a bit in my hands. I saw an earlier critique here on Amazon that the author only drew every flower in one angle. Be that as it may… she has captured the essence, her interpretation of the floral form, which I believe is enough to get one moving ahead. The part I love just as much and is an integral part of the book is the lovely photography of the flowers… isolated and laid out against the white background so we are able to see the real thing (flowers, stems and leaves) closeup and usually in several angles. They sometimes look like they’re popping off the page. For me, that is the part which offers the artist inspiration to practise drawing in different ‘angles’, beyond that first sketch Rachel provides. There are many ways to approach floral lineart. If you are just starting out and trying to find a helpful guide, this would be one book to get you nicely warmed up to build confidence and evolve towards your personal style.

Wonderful book! Detailed instructions and beautiful pictures!
