SynopsisWith this profusely illustrated guide, beginners can learn the fundamentals while more experienced artists can refine their skills. Its features include straightforward explanatory text, highlighted by 233 drawings; insights from a distinguished artist and art instructor; keys to depicting musculature, hair, feathers, and other physical features; and portraying the essentials of lifelike images., Unlike painters of the human figure, artists reproducing images of animals have to "snatch" their opportunities, notes the author of this excellent how-to guide. He advises beginning artists to take advantage of moments during which the subject is at rest. Acquiring a certain knowledge of anatomy and characteristics of various animals is also essential to perfecting artistic renderings. Explanatory text is accompanied by the author's 233 accurate drawings depicting the relative proportions of a heavy draught horse and a horse trained for fox hunting; as well as studies of cows, dogs, birds, and other wild animals. Students of art will find this book essential in their studies of animal and bird forms.

  • "Small, light weight book"

    This has got to be the very best animal anatomy and drawing text I have ever enjoyed. I expect to be using this long over due reference text every time I draw animals, which requires considerable skill if it is to look real. This text has all of information to necessitate accurate drawings. Instruction is simple, explained well, great illustration and information. A great tool for any artist.
