The layout of this book is clear and concise making it easy to follow. However, I did feel that the author relied on some known artistic knowledge of such things as tonal values, lighting, etc. As a beginner, I found there were many words and ideas that I did not understand which I floundered on. Nevertheless, in fairness the demonstrations were excellent and some of the best that I have seen. I liked the way the colours to each painting were shown which I found a great help. If you already have some wildlife painting experience then this book is ideal for furthering technique.
For the artist who has had some experience with painting, this is an outstanding reference. The information gathered here is invaluable to those of us who pursue wildlife painting. I am very pleased with this book.
This books is everything an up and coming artist needs to perfect their work. There is great detail and information to assist with how to produce your best work.Excellent step by step illustrations and guidance.
This is book is of techniques for any wildlife artists. Clearly illustrated by some of his great works in a step by step series. How each and every picture is conceived and how it is built up is clearly explained. A great inspirational work book for any budding wildlife artists.
It is a great reference, and not just for wildlife, but for painting all animals. There is no shortage on tips and instruction along with plenty of actual finished art pieces.
books at this level are rarely truly instructive. This is one of the rare ones that is.
Prompt delivery. The book was in excellent condition. The price of seven dollars was a steal.The book is an ideal tutorial for a painting enthusiast who is interested in wildlife.
Excellent pictures and description for advanced beginners to pros. Text is clear and practical. Refer to it frequently. Highly recommend
