4.0 out of 5 stars Very nice, basic beginners guide..., August 24, 2008
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: How to Draw Birds (How to Draw (Dover)) (Paperback)
This is a very nice beginners guide to jump start your "inner artist". This book is very easy-to-follow for the very young or the very young at heart of any age.

What I love about this book is it takes clear, diagrams that start with circles, ovals and other very basic shapes and shows how to sketch realistic images of the birds. All together there's 30 different birds covered. Including a rooster, penguin, horned owl, swan, toucan, duck, heron, flamingo, robin, chickadee and many more.

These drawings look the best colored in with colored pencils or crayons, as they are very basic.

Overall, a great little drawing guide for any wannabe artist who wants to get a good jump start. Then they can move on to more detailed guides.

4.0 out of 5 stars For the beginning bird artist, May 9, 2008
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: How to Draw Birds (How to Draw (Dover)) (Paperback)
I bought this book for my son. It has good basic step by step line drawings (4 for each bird) to draw a number of different birds with full color pictures to look at if you want to color in your birds. You draw your birds on a separate sheet of paper. This is a book for the young or beginning artist as the finished drawings are simple and not extremely detailed.
