Ihania taideharjoituksia vuoden jokaiselle päivälle! 365 päivää taidetta väreissä pursuaa iloisia väriharjoituksia, jotka innostavat taiteilun pariin. Monipuolisten tehtävien avulla opit käyttämään kirkkaita värejä rohkeasti ja yhdistelemään värejä odottamattomilla tavoilla toisiinsa. Harjoitukset sopivat kaikenlaisille taiteilijoille, niin aloittelijoille kuin konkareillekin. Tehtävät on jaettu neljään luokkaan – oppimiseen, leikittelyyn, havainnointiin ja tuntemiseen –, joiden avulla on helppo löytää juuri sillä hetkellä inspiroiva harjoitus. Kirjassa voi myös halutessaan edetä numerojärjestyksessä. Harjoituksia tukevat ymmärrettävästi esitetyt perustiedot väriteoriasta ja vinkit taidevälineiden käytöstä. Pääosassa on kuitenkin rento ote taideharrastukseen. Lorna Scobie on englantilainen kuvittaja, kirjailija ja suunnittelija, jonka 365 päivää -sarja on myynyt maailmalla jo yli 600 000 kappaletta. Scobie kannustaa katsomaan värejä uudesta vinkkelistä ja käyttämään niitä itsevarmasti ja hullutellen.
