From Library Journal
Dewberry has codified her style of decorative painting into 16 specific strokes, which she teaches here in a clear and easy method. Though the book is not "complete"?it only covers floral painting?it does put the painting of flowers and vines on objects like birdhouses and watering cans within the reach of nearly anyone who can hold a brush. Recommended for any library with a popular decorative arts collection.

Customer Reviews

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!

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!

Easy to follow
Great for beginners. I'm already on my fourth project and each one gets better.
