Tole painting refers to decorative floral designs applied to tinware, traditionally on trays, coffeepots, teapots, cups, mugs, canisters, document boxes, and match safes. In this book, acclaimed painter Pat Oxenford provides guidance on the tools and materials needed to get started, tips on preparing tin for painting, and techniques for pulling the basic strokes that are the foundation for creating designs. Step-by-step photographs and detailed directions are included for using the strokes to create a variety of folk-art flowers and then several complete projects. A gallery of painted tinware offers inspiration.
"A more than credible job of presenting both the basics as well as a 19-project gallery of outdoor items. Each project features directions as well as worksheets on various design parts. The projects include chairs, tables, fountains, stepping stones and rocks, candleholders, planter boxes, and a watering can. Paint conversion chart...metric conversion chart."--"Booklist."

"...folk art and tole painting as it should be. Each project is painted with rich, loose, brilliantly colored strokes that look like the work of our country's original decorative painters. The added beauty of these pieces, however, is that they're painted with the acrylic paints of today...."--Decorative Artist's Workbook. 84 pages (12 in color), 30 b/w illus., 8 1/2 x 10 3/4.
After many years, I am still a member of the National Society of Decorative Painters and support them by attending the conventions. I took a look at the pictures of my creations and asked myself what I should do with them. It was at this time that I decided to share them in a book with others. I hope this book inspires you to enjoy painting as much as I do.
