Decor shops today are filled with modern-art canvases and block art that can literally be painted by anyone with the most basic sense of colour and a little determination. This title by the authors of the highly acclaimed Fabulous fabric paint offers an affordable and inspired way to indulge in this popular art form. Focussing on texture, line and colour, Quick art gives you page after page of creative ideas. With leftover wall-paint you can enhance your interior using simple techniques like doodling, dribbling, dripping and splashing onto whatever happens to be handy - a clip file, an old door, a rusty gate, wooden panels, an old magnetic board and create easy and effective artworks. Texture comes from the addition of pastes, crack filler, cements, oxides, sand and other materials, with the emphasis on three-dimensional form and multi-functionality.
