Art Masterpieces To Colour: 60 Great Paintings From Botticelli To Piccasso

Description

Colourists of all ages are invited to try to create their own versions of Grant Wood's American Gothic, Renoir's Girl with a Watering Can, Winslow Homer's Snap the Whip, as well as famous works by Thomas Hart Benton, Mary Cassatt, Edward Hopper, John Singer Sargent, Toulouse-Lautrec, Vincent Van Gogh and 52 other great artists. Because the plates are not backed up, colourists can use watercolours if they choose, withour fear of ruining a picture on the verso.
