Book Description

EXCLUSIVE HARDBACK EDITION

Jean Haines' first-hand experience of the energising and life-enhancing effects of painting makes her a perfect example of how watercolours can work for you. 

Bestselling, internationally-renowned artist and author Jean Haines takes you on an exciting journey through painting in her new book. Not just for artists, this book is an avenue into art for people who have never painted and may even have been told they ‘can’t paint’ at an early age, but who love the idea of playing with colour as a distraction from the stresses of modern life.

All of Jean’s books have promoted the energising and mood-lifting effects of painting, and this aspect of her writing is brought into sharp focus in Paint Yourself Positive. It will encourage the reader to take up painting as a wonderful hobby that can transform your life.

Paperback edition available - ISBN: 9781782216537
