Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Wildlife Art: 60 Contemporary Masters and Their Work (Hardcover)
This is a gorgeous book containing wonderful illustrations (and images of a few dramatic sculpture pieces) from sixty wildlife artists in a diversity of style and creativity. It's a great book for inspiration but this is not a tutorial book just to note.
