Internationally renowned artist and best selling author Stephen Quiller shows readers how to discover their own personal "color sense" in Color Choices, a book that offers readers a fresh perspective on perfecting their own color styles. With the help of his own "Quiller Wheel," a special foldout wheel featuring 68 precisely placed colors, the author shows artists how they can develop their own unique color blends. First, Quiller demonstrates how to use the wheel to interpret color relationships and mix colors more clearly. Then he explains, step by step, how to develop five structured color schemes, apply underlays and overlays, and use color in striking, unusual ways. This book will bring out every artist's unique sense of color whether he or she works in oil, watercolor, acrylics, gouache, or casein.

In this charming children's book, playwright and director of a children's theatre company, Brian Seward, puts an imaginative and modern spin on the beloved Chinese folktale of the same name Chr(45) 'The Magic Paintbrush'. Young readers will be delighted that some of the illustrations are left uncoloured so they can colour them in on their own. In Seward's story, the main character is Tony Lee, a ten year old student from present day Singapore. Struggling with the boredom and pressure of his studies, he finds his copy of Ma Liang and the Magic Paintbrush and wishes he could discover a magical paintbrush of his own. Like all good fairytales, Tony's wish comes true! With a broad sweep, a magic brush transports Tony back hundreds of years, to a southern province in ancient China. Quite suddenly, Tony finds himself dressed like the legendary Ma Liang, with a beautiful phoenix by his side. Realising that the magic brush can bring to life anything he paints, Tony generously offers to paint whatever the villagers need. Chickens, cows, ploughs, rice and all things nice! But wait ... there's danger lurking behind the trees! Sotong and Shrimp - the greedy emperor's nasty guards - pounce on Tony while his back is turned. What will happen to Tony now? Will the evil emperor use the paintbrush to bring destruction to the land? Will Tony ever get back home in time for his exams? Through the fun text, a clear and strong moral message about friendship, the dangers of using, or abusing power, and the value of creativity is presented in this tale. This is a story that will appeal to anyone who appreciates a good read and a hearty laugh.
