About the Author :
Michael Lakin was born and bred in South Derbyshire. His early learning was basic but he always excelled in art. After leaving school he moved into engineering, becoming a manager, before he left to start his own business. Michael kept up art as a hobby and began to teach classes in Botanical Art to adults at Derby WEA. Since then he has exhibited in london and other parts of the UK. He has a purpose-built studio next to his rural home, where he teaches and gives demonstrations throughout the year.

Review :
his watercolour book makes it so easy for you to replicate five flowers, which are shown in several stages, all with crisp clean images that make you feel that even as a beginner you could actually do this. The best bit is that the drawing has already been done for you with tracings for each flower. Once the tracing has been transferred to paper (or cake top) you can start on the fun bit and begin to wield your paintbrush.-Cake Craft & Decoration

    A Thrilling But Totally Believable Murder Mystery

    Read this in one evening. I had planned to do other things with my day, but it was impossible to put down. Every time I tried, I was drawn back to it in less than 5 minutes. I sobbed my eyes out the entire last 100 pages. Highly recommend!
