demonstrations - developing a painting step-by-step;
exercises - additional exercises to put theory into practice;
ideas - flowers with still life, in garden settings, close-up compositions, flowers in the landscape, flower portraits and studies;
and inspiration - a wide selection of flower paintings to show different styles and techniques.
The book features paintings by the author and a number of other well-known contemporary artists, including John Lidzey, Shirley Trevena and Ann Blockley. It adopts a "workshop" approach, with practical projects, exercises and step-by-step demos. (Source Amazon UK 6 December 2005)
