Book Description

May 1, 2000
From antelopes to zebras, the A-to-Z of creatures inhabiting these lively pages are lovingly depicted by ten gifted wildlife artists who reveal their carefully developed techniques for achieving remarkably realistic animal art.

Emphasizing the all-important details of rendering wildlife, the book devotes separate sections to animals' eyes, whiskers, beaks, fur, and so on. Sketches, studies, and reference photos used by master painters show just how their bird and animal portraits evolved into magnificent finished works in watercolor, gouache, oil, pastel, or other mediums.

4.0 out of 5 stars very nice and inspiring artwork but not enough detail about techniques used, July 24, 2006
This review is from: More Wildlife Painting: Techniques of Modern Masters (Paperback)
this book only brievly describe the techniques used and sometimes what medium was used is not even mentioned. This is a nice book for the artwork, but as a teatching tool, it is not the book to buy. There are a few useful tips and a rough explanation with visual on how a mountain lion with cubs painting was done, but all we see from that is the 3 main step of that painting. Most exemple don't even go there and only have a bit of text explanation.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great for professional artists, September 13, 2009
This review is from: More Wildlife Painting: Techniques of Modern Masters (Paperback)
Answered a few questions I personally had about some specific techniques. Not for the beginning artist but certainly inspirational and a great library addition. A bit vague but certainly worth the money for any serious wildlife artist. I personally have gotten more from this book then many others in my vast library.
