Vibrant Acrylics Book & DVD
Set With Hashim Akib

This exciting new book
from first-time author
Hashim Akib (2009 SAA
Artist of the Year) is
much more about the
process of painting than
it is about the mechanics
of applying paint. As
Hashim says, The best
tool for learning to
paint is to paint, and
his colourful and fluent
artworks can't fail to
encourage you to do just
that. The book is filled
with tips and
demonstrations, but also
with light, colour and
urgency that all fully
justify the use of
Vibrant in the title.
Hashim paints in a heavy
impasto style that
creates a sense of
movement and vitality to
subjects that include
landscapes, portraits,
buildings and animals.
Intriguingly, he also
works from a coloured
ground that sets off the
overpainting that
follows, bringing
everything forward as a
result and giving real
depth to light and
shade. In the DVD he
focuses on three
contrasting subjects - a
landscape: 'Woodland
Light', a portrait:
'Hard Life', and an
urban-scape: 'Rush Hour'.
In the portrait
project, Hashim
describes the importance
of acclimatising to the
scene by creating colour
layers, giving depth and
texture. His urban-scape
project is a great
example of how to break a
complex scene down into
simple, manageable
shapes. The DVD also
includes a special
feature showing you how
to use negative space and
shape to create a
background, full of tips
and techniques to
encourage and inspire
you. Book & DVD: Search
Press. Paperback. 128
pages. Colour throughout.

Ready To Paint Dogs & Puppies
In Acrylics Book & DVD Set
With Paul Apps

Dogs are not called man's
best friend for nothing,
and they're certainly the
animal subject you're
most likely to come
across. The problem, of
course, is that everyone
knows what they're
supposed to look like and
the world will be your
harshest critic! In this
new book, Paul Apps
provides the outline
tracings that are the
mainstay of the series,
removing at a stroke the
first stumbling block
you'll meet - the
modelling. At once,
you're free to
concentrate on the
painting rather than the
drawing and on how to get
the colours and the
brushstrokes right, how
to make fur look
strokeable and give eyes
their depth. In five
highly-detailed
demonstrations, Paul
paints different breeds,
poses and settings that
will give you the
confidence to tackle
almost any subject. The
finished results are both
lifelike and filled with
life, as doggy, in
fact, as you could
wish. In the
accompanying DVDs, Paul
goes into further detail
painting a springer
spaniel in a field and a
labrador puppy peeping
over a fence. Book &

How To Paint Flowers In
Acrylics Book & DVD Set With
Tim Fisher

Acrylic is a popular and
versatile medium and this
handy little book brings
to it a favourite subject
that deserves a further
look that will help you
to get started. After a
brief survey of
materials, Tim
introduces some basic
techniques and looks at
tone and colour, with
some notes on mixing in
the specific context of
flowers. He follows this
with some handy ideas on
getting started, with
advice on sketching and
composition. All of this
is necessarily brief in
order to leave room for
the three demonstrations,
which form the main meat
of the book. In these,
Tim shows you in some
detail how to paint wild
roses, Black-eyed Susans
and a more complex
subject, a field of
poppies. In each, he
mainly uses the oil
technique, using the
paint undiluted straight
from the tube and
frequently with
knives. In the DVD Tim
takes you through three
complete projects: some
white magnolia flowers on
a bold background, a
field of poppies and some
stunning roses. Tim shows
you how to use the
texture and brightness of
the white canvas to bring
the magnolias to life,
how to use the background
colour to create dynamic
and intense poppies with
a pallet knife, and how
using both a brush and
pallet knife combination
can give texture and
depth to rose petals and
leaf work. The DVD also
contains a bonus feature
where Tim gives you a
guided tour through the
various ways of using the
palette knife. As an
ambassador for acrylics,
Tim will show you just
how easy to work with and
versatile acrylics are,
and how they are perfect
for creating bold,
impressionistic flowers.
All in all this set is
an excellent start for
those wanting to get to
get to grips with
acrylics. Book: Search
