Review: I bought this book for my mum for her birthday as she's both interested in quilting AND Japanese themed items and the title promised both of these things but I didnt take advantage of the "read inside the book" online facility before I bought it (I didn't spot it before I bought it!) but upon receiving it I had a quick look through it and was quite delighted with the purchase! This little book isn't simply about quilts, it covers a multitude of subjects from quilts to wall-hangings and decorative objects, dollies to handbags/tote bags and cushions - all with a Japanese theme and all beautifully illustrated with full, illustrated instructions with full colour drawings and line diagrams. Although I'm no expert (I don't quilt/craft at all) it looks easy enough to follow for even a novice quilter/crafter to follow and certainly interesting and involving enough for the seasoned and hardened quilter/crafter to find something to interest him/her. All in all it's a charming, well-produced little book with nicely thought-out projects which is a treat to read through and well worth the money. Highly recommended, especially for Japanophiles!! :-)

  • Waterstones Modern Japanese Painting Techniques

    Price: £15.99

    Brand: Waterstones

     

    Description: This book makes it easy to create and admire wonderful Japanese-style paintings and portraits! Modern Japanese-style paintings are recognizable by their restrained use of three-dimensionality and perspective, reliance upon expressive lines, and the bold use of color to direct the viewer's eye. There are other ways that artists imbue their work with Japanese- inspired attributes, including through the skillful use of shape, texture, and facial expression. Author Shinichi Fukui introduces readers to 7 notable modern Japanese artists (Kazuo Kawakami, Chiaki Takasugi, Miho Tanaka, Ryohei Nishiyama, Jose Franky, Ryohei Murata, and Keiji Yano) who specialize in shin hanga-style portraiture of Japanese women. He then presents instructions to create 21 different original paintings | ??from sketching models, preparing and mixing paints, blocking in color, and rendering fine details. Using these techniques, and a bit of acrylic paint, readers will be able to create eye-catching works of art that express a timeless Japanese aesthetic.
