Ning Yeh publishes yet another step-by-step illustration of one hundred and eight different flowers to his already extensive instructional collection. 108 Flowers by Ning Yeh is being described by one of his A+ students as being an "Encyclopedia" to painting flowers for the Chinese Brush artist! Explore through Ning's first volume as he walks the reader through illustrations of the first twenty-seven flowers.

Ning starts with an introduction of material and flower painting basic. Each flower subject has step-by-step notes on color preparation, brush use and composition detail. Ning introduces each flower lesson with a picture of the finished painting, an original by Ning Yeh, accompanied with the English name of the flower and its Chinese name and meaning.
