Customer Reviews

Great reference book

This is a wonderful book that provides a good reference and inspiration for any animal artist. The book is not for teaching how to paint but to showcase a variety of unique styles and techniques developed by accomplished artists. I consider this book a great addition to my art book library.

Excellent reference book

This book was an impulse buy, since I am doing some painting from my animal photographs. When it arrived I was very pleased to see that it is very worthwhile - there are many examples of different breeds of dogs and cats, with several different styles of painting, from oils and acrylic to watercolors. The sketches are nicely done, with lots of detail about both technique and general composition as well as examples of eyes, fur, etc. Definitely worth the money and a keeper.

Excellent Reference

A well illustrated book that does not disappoint on any level. Believe me, the book is worth buying. I paint pet portraits often and most books had the been there done that feeling. This one is much better than anything I had. NormaJean
