With expert instruction from two award-winning artists who specialize in capturing the essence of the natural world, anyone can create unerringly accurate portraits of plants, flowers, and wildlife. Painting Nature's Details offers advice on composition; techniques for using a range of materials; and ideas on finding inspirational subjects, including in parks, local zoos, and museums.
