Book Overview

Bold Expressive Painting presents instruction for creating expressive paintings across still-life, floral, and landscape subjects using mixed-media approaches. The contents move from painting materials and basic art elements into chapters on expressive composition, color and value.

After building those fundamentals, the book includes mixed-media painting methods and subject-focused projects for floral still lifes. It also covers loose expressive landscape painting and concludes with final thoughts, including critiquing your own work, inspiration resources, acknowledgments, and a short author section.
