Description
Drawing Birds by Andrew Forkner is an expert guide to producing beautiful lifelike drawings of birds in their natural habitat. This detailed and practical book covers materials, techniques, and reference gathering, as well as the key features of birds such as beaks, eyes, claws, wings, and feathers. The book is divided into chapters on specific bird families, including waterfowl, wildfowl, birds of prey, garden and woodland birds, and sea birds. Each chapter provides techniques specific to the group, along with numerous examples and step-by-step demos. Forkner's approach focuses on using aspects such as pattern, shading, and shape to give his paintings life and interest. With its emphasis on accurately observed and beautifully rendered drawings, this guide is suitable for artists of all interests who want to improve their skills in drawing birds.
