This is a great little book from ‘The Little Book of …’ series and is full of ideas for rock painting. It explains the type of rocks/stones that are most suitable as well as the equipment you will need. There are practice pages and helpful templates. Instructions are detailed and clear. A great activity for adults and children. Thank you to the authors, NetGalley and Quarto publishing for an ARC in exchange for an honest review.

This is a great book to gather inspiration for rock painting. I gained so much knowledge from cleaning the rocks to ideas for painting he rocks. It is a very resource for new to more advanced painters.

This book is excellent with easy to follow directions. This is exactly the type of book I like to have for examples of rock painting for programs at the library. We have a wide variety of ages that like to meet and paint rocks together to exchange and hide around the community.

This book was full of great techniques and beautiful designs! It is so fun to do this with kids AND adults, not to mention a low cost activity. I enjoyed the step by step instructions as well the the prep and finishing information.

I love F. Shehnaz Bac's art style, and her whimsical designs in this book are a pleasure to look at. The book starts of with in-depth information on how to begin rock painting and then take you on a journey with detailed instructions and clear images. Love this book, I spent hours painting some gorgeous little rocks as a result!

Great little book for those who are just getting started with rock painting or need help with drawing!! I fit both!!

Painting rocks allows me to decorate and destress at the same time. Once you start, you will never look at rocks the same way. The authors of this book have given us many helpful tips and some beautiful examples to follow. We spent an afternoon "hunting" then painting rocks and built some beautiful memories. 5 stars seems too little for this book, but there you are.

Ein ganz tolles Buch voller Ideen, Tipps und detaillierten Anleitungen rund um das Malen auf Stein.
Sehr liebevoll gestaltet, zum Selbermachen und verschenken.

A wonderful book, written by several artists with very different styles.
Inspiring. For children and adults alike.

This is a fun book to guide you in all the steps needed to be a successful rock artist. I feel like it would be best for adults or talented older children, rather than elementary students. The designs are cute and intricate.

Great book about rock painting and wonderful with instructions too! My 5 year old wanted me to give him other ideas on how to paint rocks. He really liked the templates of art in the back. Two thumbs up!

This is such a great little book! I would never have looked for a book on this subject but the cover caught my eye and I'm glad it did. This is a great activity that can be done with little cost, especially if you combine it with a trip to the seashore. It covers everything from different ways of decorating, what you need and some design inspiration. The mandala designs are stunning and while I'm not convinced my artistic skills will get me that far they are inspiring. This book will definitely be getting used during the school summer holidays this year.

Delightful book, full of beautiful photographs and illustrations. The projects are excellent and clear step by step instructions are given throughout. Suitable for all levels including a complete beginner. It is a craft that is accessible to everyone. The book does a brilliant job of inspiring you to rush out and find your own rocks and pebbles and give it go.

This book is awesome. I love to paint and painting rocks is all the rage at the moment. This book is filled with tips, tricks, and step by step instruction for creating beautiful painted rocks. It also has templates at the back of the book and practice pages after each section. The book is more of geometric designs and dots but the pictures look stunning. The book is filled with step by step brightly colored photos as well as the instructions. This really is a great book if you are interested in learning to paint rocks or really anything for that matter, just because it is a rock painting book does not mean the designs can only be painted on rocks. It's also a great book to give you fresh ideas to paint.

I received this book from the Author or Publisher via Netgalley.com and chose to leave this review.

Great range of different styles and techniques. I found the level of detail more than sufficient, but those without any prior crafting experience might need more guidance on some of the specific techniques. The inclusion of templates and practice pages is a nice touch, although not really functional in ebook format, which is what I reviewed.

If you are looking for great beginner instructions on rock painting this is a good one. It looks like a great family activity for summer, the book has instructions for very simple (lines and patterns) to a gorgeously detailed noah’s Arc set.

It covers how to select, and prepare your rocks for optimal painting which is great, some steps I never would have considered and might have disappointed me in my final results. The book also covers materials, step by step on some of the more intricate designs. In the back there are templates for a few of the designs to trace and use for your projects.

I didn’t have the materials listed, but the tips in the book led me to experiment with what I had. The picture is of my first creation, I used landscaping pebble (too small really, but already in my yard), some watercolors, a sharpie paint pen and gel pens. Note, this is not the right paint, but I am pretty pleased with the results anyway.

Thanks to the publisher and netgalley for the digital advanced review copy!

Delicate and stunning results, this book offers over 50 techniques on how to create professional results. My favorite one is the endless Mandala.

Good materials resource and some cool projects/guides...I am admittedly starting to be a little burnt out on painted rock books, though. The market is definitely becoming saturated.

Great book for those who want to bring different things into your art - nature.rocks. Does give a few templates for some designs. Gives some simple and some detailed designs to paint onto rocks. does show images with the steps on how to paint the images. Really nice ideas from the artists who put the book together.

Amazing designs and step by step guides to how to do them. Making the most beautiful and detailed rocks look possible by anyone (going to follow them and see!). Good guide to types of tools, paints..etc needed to get started. A great guide for anyone wanting to try the rock painting and hiding trend.
