Dreams Really Do Come True With Donna Dewberry: I first became familiar with Donna while watching TV. Here was a woman saying that you, (me?) can paint and yes, it will not only look nice, but Terrific with the Dewberry method. I have all of her big books and I wish I would have bought this one first. The composition of this book is brillant. Donna shows the reader how to start with a foam plate as a palette and suddenly, your off painting leaves, vines, curlicues and then fruit and flowers. Donnas technique for painting roses is priceless. With a little practice and this book, ANYONE can achieve phenominal results. If you are even thinking about purchasing a Dewberry book, please take the plunge and buy this one. Donna's simple approach and no nonsense directions will make an artist out of even the most doubtful. Being a stay-at-home mother and forever budget conscious, Donna has changed my life. Not only have her teachings provided me with an opportunity to paint treasured gifts for every occasion, but I have sold a few of my pieces and I plan to pursue decorative painting as a career. Thank You Donna from a woman who hadn't painted with anything except her fingers until your books came along!
Buy It! You'll thank me later! :): One Stroke Painting is the way to go! This book is a must have! If you ever wanted to learn to paint, here is your chance. Beginners - you too, will produce results in no time. The instructions and illustrations are straightfoward and easy to understand. I did a rose and rosebuds on a french bucket. No one would believe I did it freehand (no pattern). I had never painted a day in my life, before buying this book. Experienced - expand your repetoire!
BEST BOOK FOR PAINTING: I WAS GIVEN A BOOK BY A FRIEND WHO WANTED TO START PAINTING. NEEDLESS TO SAY SHE NEVER HAD THE TIME, BUT I STARTED PAINTING AGAIN AND MY NEIGHBORS, FRIENDS AND FAMILY HAVE GOT ME STARTED ON PROJECTS FOR THEM. I LOVE IT. IT'S VERY RELAXING. I JUST WANT MORE PROJECTS.
I can finally paint!: I always wanted to be an artist, and with Donna's easy-to-follow techniques, I can now paint! Before, I drew rotten stick figures, but Donna had me painting like a pro in nothing flat! I have given items away as gifts, and have had requests for items! I've been concentrating on clay flower pots, but I now feel ready to branch out to bigger and better things! Thanks Donna!
Easy to follow: Great for beginners. I'm already on my fourth project and each one gets better.
