    About this ebook

    Art has always been inspired by the wildlife around us. Since earliest times we have been continually fascinated by both wildlife and the challenge of representing it. This book sets the scene of how wildlife has been portrayed in art and guides the reader through the principles of practical drawing and painting wildlife. It covers recommended equipment, techniques, fieldcraft, composition and anatomy, and offers help for those wishing to exhibit their work. Suggests how to begin to draw wildlife and then to add colour; advises on how to draw a constantly moving subject and how to capture the moment; gives clear instruction on anatomy and composition; suggests how to paint outdoors and how to use photography and museum collections; gives inspiration and insights into printmaking and sculpture; gives practical advice on exhibiting and selling wildlife art; showcases inspiring images, in a range of styles, from over twenty leading artists. An authoritative guide to the principles of drawing and painting wildlife, this book will be of interest to all artists and everyone interested in wildlife - including botanical artists, print makers and sculptors, and is lavishly illustrated with 260 colour illustrations.

      I have many books on painting and drawing, including several on wildlife art, including the wonderful books by Tim Wootton, Alan Woollett, and of course John Muir Laws. This books takes its place amongst the best of them, similar in style to Tim Wootton's 'Drawing and Painting Birds', in that it is written by one person but uses the art of numerous artists to illustrate, but a much bigger book than Tim's, I would highly recommend this one to all interested in painting wildlife.
