Botanical painting for beginners, in a fresh contemporary style.

Avoiding complex layer-building techniques that take years to perfect, she shows the reader how to create the kind of frame-worthy artworks - of leaves, flowers, cacti and tropical plants - that have made her an Instagram star. Jenny has spent years teaching her techniques to beginners making this book focused and achievable, and she's made sure her students' favourite styles are included:

* Simple ink-based watercolour paintings, where perfection isn't important to make outstanding results.
* A pleasing pattern-based style using just indigo to create strong compositions.
* Single leaves like monstera, which are very popular as stand-out graphic pieces to hang on the wall.
* A fluid style demonstrating how a little confidence with a close-colour palette can create soft decorative pieces.
* A more detailed style of painting using crowd-pleasers like cacti and tropical plants.
