Follow renowned author and artist Jean Haines as she leads you on an exciting journey through paint; showing you how to overcome challenges and find a new outlook with each stroke of watercolour paint. This book is a special limited edition hardcover.

Bestselling, internationally-renowned artist and author Jean Haines takes you on an exciting journey through painting in her new book. Not just for artists, this book is an avenue into art for people who have never painted and may even have been told they 'can't paint' at an early age, but who love the idea of playing with colour as a distraction from the stresses of modern life.

All of Jean's books have promoted the energising and mood-lifting effects of painting, and this aspect of her writing is brought into sharp focus in Paint Yourself Positive. It will encourage the reader to take up painting as a wonderful hobby that can transform your life.

A member of the Society for Women Artists (SWA), international watercolourist Jean Haines is well-known for her love of her chosen medium. Having lived and travelled in many countries, this popular artist has had the opportunity to develop her skills whilst under the influence of masters from many countries, including Asia, the Middle East and Europe. She studied brush control while living in China and this had the greatest impact on her style. The magical free flow of water and colour straight on to a blank working surface (with no initial drawing) creates amazing results, often leaving her audience breathless with delight. Her paintings can be found in homes all over the world. She regularly writes for art magazines and exhibits in a number of galleries. Her hugely successful workshops are held regularly in the UK and in North America. Jean lives in Crookham Village, Hampshire.
