This is probably the best watercolor book for painting animals I have discovered yet. I eventually hope to do animal portraits in watercolor so I buy everything I can (with a decent review) about how to paint animals in watercolor and in my opinion this is one of the best. Lots of instruction, detailed how to's and pictures to go along with it. This book can't be beat esp. for the price. I purchased it used and it was in perfect condition.

This book is full of tips and helpful information for painting beautiful animal paintings in watercolor. There are step-by-step paintings at the end of each chapter that sum up the technique discussed. He tells you every color he uses for a particular painting and I found that to be very helpful. It is nice to see a wide range of paintings staring all different types of animals.

Oh, this book is nice! The artwork is beautiful and I could only wish I could do something as well as this artist did. I love this book and will keep trying. Really, really nice book!

I was hoping for more of the animals here in the Rocky Mountains, but the basic drawing guidelines were helpful

anyone notice that the chart showing the effects of colour and colour mixing on page 20 and 21 has no colour on it? it hasn't been mentioned in reviews, cant be just my copy, Mary
