“From the textured front cover to the last page, this beautifully written and illustrated book is the best of its kind. Detailed instructions and step by step pictures make finger painting a totally exciting adventure. The written directions are easy to follow and the results are quite achievable by amateurs and professionals. You can have your own Van Gogh or Monet style painting with your own creative touches. I have had the privilege of painting three of these examples from the book alongside Iris Scott in a live workshop setting, and the finished paintings are bright, Impressionistic treasures that are proudly hanging in my home. I love the squiggly lines, the chunky strokes, the dots and the dabs illustrated in the techniques section of the book. Her sky and trees are spectacular! She shares her techniques generously, and her book will become a “Bible” of artists who love Impressionism and vibrant colors. Cleanup is super easy using paper towels with the super water-based Holbien oil paint. I find that putting my gloved fingers into thick, rich paint is also therapeutic and peaceful.”
Hi! I preordered Iris Scott's Finger Painting Weekend Worshop book on 6/3/2015 and impatiently waited for it's arrival on 01/28/2016. Folks, I can tell you it was well worth the wait! When it arrived, I think I actually hugged it!😃 I sat down and devoured it with the same enthusiasm that the five year old version of me used to devour my Dr Seus books when they came in the mail!! I wanted to wait to post a review until after I painted something, but life keeps getting in the way recently, and I haven't had a chance to use it. BUT....I can tell you, I took Iris' class 2/28/2015 when we painted Lady In Leaves, which is the cover art on this book, and also the 3rd lesson (pages 68-99). With the step-by-step instructions in this book, I KNOW you will have success in learning how to finger paint. I think Iris actually made it even easier to paint Lady In Leaves from the book, to compensate for her not physically being there to help you. I do wish you each had the honor and opportunity to spend a day with Iris Scott because she it truly a gifted artist, and wonderful, inspiring, encouraging, and generous human being!! I have always been creative, and spent my life looking at the world thinking, "How would I paint that?", yet too intimidated to try. Iris gave me the tools & the encouragement to try. Since my class with Iris a year ago, I painted 19 paintings, and I'm just getting started!! Buy this book, and PAINT!! You won't regret it! I plan to have a painting party with some friends and work through the book together. Love you Iris!!!😍You've changed my life!!!😘😘😘
I just received my copy, I also bought one for a gift. This is a beautifully illustrated book with step by step detailed color instructions on how to create these beautiful paintings she is known over the world for. Her personal tips and product endorsement is invaluable. I can't wait to begin creating my own finger paintings. Get a group together and have some fun! It's not just a great teaching tool, but would be a beautiful addition for your coffee table!
Iris does a great job of providing step by step instructions using pictures that you can look at while you are painting along with the book. She also provides insight into what sells in the marketplace and how to do it if you happen to want to make a happy buck doing what you love. I have attached a painting I have just completed from this book, the first one she walks you through. I can tell I will have to keep working at this method of painting to improve but it is a lot of fun :-)
I absolutely love Iris Scott's artwork, and so when I heard she had a book coming out, I had to purchase it! The book is wonderful! Iris takes you by the hand, step by step for each painting, laying out all the supplies you need and bringing you to the finishing touches. I've done two paintings already and I'm hooked. If you want to unleash your colorful, creative self, it only takes a few hours from start to finish, and you'll have a work of art you can enjoy for many years to come. Holbein Aqua Duo are THE best paints to use, and so happy I bought them. Amazing color. You will love this book!
The ease of painting! The Holbein paint!For the cost of buying ingredients for a fun dinner with girlfriends, my friends and I were able to create a magical and unforgettable night of painting. Let alone the beautiful pictures within the book, the well structured, step-by-step instruction is excellent. Each of our paintings resulted in a hangable piece of art, and they were so easy to create.Less mess, a beautiful result, and the vibrant colors of the exceptional Holbein paint made this experience a joy, and a memorable event with my friends. I highly recommend this book enthusiastically! My girlfriends are each buying to book too!Forget adult coloring books, because finger painting is now where it's at!
I love Iris Scott. She is one of the most talented contemporary artist in my opinion. So much energy flows out of her canvas. I'm so glad she published this book and I hope she will get another one out soon. I would love to be able to paint "Chicken if the Sea" or one of her fabulous foxes. Great book to get you started with finger painting.
