DESCRIPTION:
This book was created to help Rosemalers paint on three-dimensional objects of many different types. My first book, Design Basics for Telemark Rosemaling, Volume 1, (Rosemaling Strokes) has sold over 12,000 copies and has been very helpful for new and continuing Rosemalers. . All the pieces are easily available and are painted with acrylic paint and/or oils. From the Author I have taught and painted Norwegian Rosemaling for over twenty-five years and have found one of the most difficult design pieces for beginners is boxes and containers. All supplies are available from my store if unavailable in your area. Conversion charts are available for any paints that you wish to work with. The projects are in the Telemark style, Os style, Valdres and Vest Agder style. Most of these styles are presented with easy color mixtures and designs. I hope that you will enjoy this book also
Many of the boxes are available from local craft shops and are inexpensive. Each box is painted using easily available colors and has designs included with complete instructions. Other books by the author include: Rosemaling Strokes, Volume I (for absolute beginners in the art) , Design Basics for Telemark Rosemaling Volume II (information on painting on many different surfaces) and Design Basics for Swedish Folk Art.. How-to-paint book of Norwegian Rosemaling (Decorative Painting) on twenty-two wooden boxes of traditional and usual shapes. All pieces and supplies can also be ordered from the author. Boxes range from small and easy to paint to larger and more complex pieces. Beautiful colors photos of each box are included. Some boxes are chip carved.
