This latest in the Eden Project series on botanical painting is perhaps the best yet. Billed as 'exotic' & featuring a Bird of Paradise flower on the front cover, it could easily be mistaken for a niche publication of interest to specialists only. Further investigation reveals that many of the subjects are far from unfamiliar, with studies of orchids, the Venus fly trap & even pumpkins & artichokes hardly stretching credibility. Beneath all this, however, is a thoroughly sound guide to all the techniques of botanical illustration in both watercolour & coloured pencil. Everything is clearly explained & beautifully illustrated (as we've come to expect from Rosie & Meriel) & there are demonstrations & detail paintings wherever they're needed. Sound advice abounds, from familiarising yourself with your plant & understanding colour to the use of washes & techniques for capturing bloom & sheen. Although the subject matter here is not perhaps that of the completely well-trodden path, this book is nevertheless one of the best guides to botanical illustration there is.

Lauded by both collectors & fellow practitioners alike, Ann Blockley is one of the country's most respected artists. Her style is always challenging, yet also constantly intriguing & her less than representational approach instantly provokes a desire in the rest of us to experiment too. In this genuinely exciting book, Ann pushes the boundaries of flower painting further than ever before. Here are flowers that are little more than colours & shapes, flowers that merge into the surrounding landscape & flowers that become the composition in themselves. & yet they remain flowers, because this isn't a book about abstraction but about interpretation, about making your subject the subject itself & the medium the message. This is an extraordinary book & a tour de force that will challenge, excite & reward anyone who wants to push the boundaries of art & discover a world of possibilities. Batsford. Hardback. 128 pages.
