Dewberry (Donna Dewberry's Complete Book of One-Stroke Painting) shows numerous interior projects she has painted. For each one, she gives a description of the techniques, colors, and materials used, with step-by-step instructions included for a few. Though her well-illustrated book will give experienced decorative painters inspiring suggestions, amateurs will need a book such as Priscilla Hauser's Book of Decorative Painting (LJ 9/15/97) to get started.
