I love this book. The step by step pictures and instructions on painting all the different kinds of birds and the backgrounds is exactly what I was looking for.

Sherry C. Nelson has written another great book on painting birds. Her easy to follow instructions enable even a novice to create beautiful works of art.

I purchased this book because of its absolutely beautiful conception of birds. I planned to paint them not in oils or in acrilics like shown, but in watercolors. The results were more than satisfactory and the directions made this painting so enjoyable. Anyone who paints in any medium would enjoy having this book added to the "artist's library" of references!

I have several Sherry Nelson books and they are the best books in my art library. They are very informative, clear and concise.

I highly recommend the books.

I bought this book on a whim and it has proved more valuable in the long run. I live in Amarillo, Texas and the author lives in New Mexico. This show many of the birds I see daily and enhances my watercolors.

"Beautiful" another book from this author that has been well thought out, easy to read instructions, the love of what she paints shines through her pictures in this book. Money well spent on this book.

This is an excellent book. I used it to do a pastel painting and it was a great help even though it is for oil.

I have done oils in the past and this book has great step by step information on both color and technical application.

Fast shipper too.

Normally I would look for a DVD as I am a beginner painter. But, I love her books, they are excellent guides for painting baby birds. Very good step by step pictures and write up. I would definitely recommend this as a painters guide and just for looking at to get ideals.

I am a China Painter and ordered 'Painting Songbirds' for the beautiful studies and information. I am delighted with this book and have also ordered 'Painting Garden Birds' by same artist. I love browsing through these books and can't wait to start painting.
