[@impish22]

I have been collecting children's books with great illustrations for some time. It's so fun

[@iritlandgraf]

It really is!

[@sheilacym]

Agreed ! I just bought 3 books by Nina Chakrabarti ….small books, but lovely illustrations of trees, funghi and shells …and because they are written for children, are easy to understand and learn from. 🤗🤗

Coucou Irit, I'd just like to say: Thank you so much for those wonderful recommendations. I've just ordered Abstract Watercolor & Start Painting Now as this year's Christmas presents to myself. Can't wait to dive in and have a bit of a creative play over the holidays. 🤍💫

[@iritlandgraf]

You are so welcome! Enjoy ❤️❤️

Hi Irit…. Just said to hubby ‘ooo…. Sweetie! Irit is sharing a selection of books! This could be trouble $$$’. I won’t tell you his response! 🤣🤣🤣

[@iritlandgraf]

Lol 😂😂😂

I like to browse in the children’s section of the library. Heaps of inspiration and completely free.

[@iritlandgraf]

Great idea 👍👍

[@iritlandgraf]

Happy to hear!

My favorites are biographies of Frida Kahlo, Picasso , various surrealists and all the art photos in them.

[@iritlandgraf]

Great picks! Thanks for sharing!

[@WilmaBadenhorst-i8u]

[@iritlandgraf]

Glad you like them!

[@sabinemetscher6449]

Thank you, Irit. Color Harmony was useful to me. I painted some by its inspiration & sold it back to used books. Color information & labeling lacked in this book, I agree. The Japanese children’s books I want to live in them💕Illustrated children’s books are my best inspiration & time well spent. Art time is my chase🙂🎨🖌️🐾

[@iritlandgraf]

Yes I want to live in then too!! 😍😍

[@sueallen1945]

Great selection!!

[@iritlandgraf]

[@ladyflimflam]

The Hockney sketchbooks are best books for any and every year.

Basquiat was an American artist in NYC in the 1980’s. Pronounced: Bas-key-ah

[@merri_spiderly6017]

I wish I lived in a bigger city 😂 (We have only one book/art store)

[@iritlandgraf]

I live in a tiny village but luckily the town nearby has 2 art stores and then there's the internet 🤭

Victoria has said that she can't explain which colours she's used exactly because she does her mixes over a "dirty" palette, so the colours she makes ate "contaminated" and are unexpected and original. She thinks we all should be able to create any mix by learning and training ourselves

[@iritlandgraf]

Interesting, thanks for sharing!

[@samanthajoseph8005]

Basquait is pronounce like BASKAY
