Brindabella Bears
Volume 1.

Although another bear book,  Brindabella Bears is really quite different and to me has a distinct Victorian era  Flavor and olde world charm.
Throughout the pages of the book there are some wonderful little additional line drawings to be used as you wish.
The General instructions are good with tips on painting the bears and all the painting techniques covered very well, it also includes Colour conversions forDecoArt,  Matisse, Jo Sonja and both Australian and American Sources for the wood..

There are 4 colour work sheets with really great painting directions and step by steps. The Line drawings are in  separate pull out centre pages and project size,  These are 2 very important features IMO.

Jo has little stories to go with all her projects telling us of the inspiration and the bears names.
Projects include:
Buttons and Bears,
Linus and the Liner Bears,
By the Sea,
Life is but a Game,
Canadian Travellers,
Barnabus and Will,
Little Lovey.

Bear Painters will love this one and it will be a valuable addition to the bear painters library as each project has multiple uses, any part of them could be used on any surface and some would be suitable for masculine gifts.
