Using pre-drawn tracings that take care of the structure of the work, the Ready to Paint guides allow you to concentrate on brushwork and colour and here, by sticking to one flower type, Janet allows you to develop these skills in a simplified context. There are five projects, each of which has its own outline and a particularly detailed step-by-step demonstration and concentrates on a single colour so that you have pink, yellow, red, maigold and white blooms, all of them in simple, yet attractive, arrangements.
