Our Books category is a collection of instructional guides and creative resources designed for crafters who want to expand their artistic skills. Whether you're picking up a paintbrush for the first time or looking to refine existing techniques, these books offer structured learning and inspiration.
You'll find step-by-step guides covering a wide range of painting and drawing techniques, from watercolour and acrylics to alcohol ink and pastels. Many titles focus on specific subjects like flowers, botanicals, landscapes and urban sketching, whilst others offer broader instruction on foundational skills. Some books come as practical art packs with integrated materials, making them ideal for hands-on learning. There are also creative memoirs and stories from established artists that provide both inspiration and insight into artistic practice.
When choosing a book, consider your current skill level and the techniques you'd like to explore. Starting with a step-by-step guide in your chosen medium can build confidence, whilst more specialised titles work well once you've grasped the basics. Many crafters find it helpful to work through exercises alongside their regular card making and scrapbooking practice, as painting skills translate beautifully into mixed-media projects.
