Hand-painted Textiles

Reviews / Votes

I cannot think of a better artist than Sarah Campbell to introduce would-be designers to produce hand-painted textiles. Sarah has made a career focusing on the delights of pattern in simple, but deliciously varied, directions. Anyone who notices pattern will have spotted her witty designs on so many furnishing items. Here she stimulates her readers to play with basic brushstrokes, creating bold geometry, and arming them with techniques to create endless personal flights of fancy. My fingers itch to play with all the possibilities that dance in my head each time I thumb through this delightful book. * Kaffe Fassett MBE, Artist & Author * Hand-painted Textiles by Sarah Campbell is just the sort of book I've wanted.
