Painting Animals in Watercolour

Artists seem compelled to try to capture the amazing variety of the animal kingdom; the challenge remains how to breathe energy into your paintings and make the animals leap off the paper.

This deeply practical book offers an accessible introduction to drawing animals from life, to try to capture that essence.

It gives instructions on how to approach drawing; covers ideas for materials and supplies to make drawing from life a pleasure; offers step-by-step demonstrations of different watercolour techniques; offers specific advice on the use of colours and paints, fur, feathers and features; and provides ideas for experimentation with mixed media.

Full of colourful examples and guidance, this new book explains how to transform your studies into finished works of art full of character.

It encourages you to find the extraordinary in the everyday, as well as delighting in the breadth of nature.

Taking a contemporary approach to traditional watercolour, the author shows how a few well-chosen paint brushes can reveal the soul of the subject.
