Description:
The quick way to watercolour success is here! If you have ever wanted to learn to paint animals, then this is for you.
Step-by-steps and clearly explained techniques will guide beginners through the methods needed to easily and effectively paint a variety of domestic and wild animals. Matthew expertly demonstrates how to paint realistic eyes, mouths, noses, fur markings and feathers in watercolour, and clearly explains all the techniques needed for the projects, including wet into wet, lifting out, adding shadows and the all-important dry-brush blending.
Full-size, fold-out outline sketches are provided for all projects, allowing you to simply trace the sketches onto watercolour paper and start painting with ease. A clear and comprehensive colour-mixing section is included to allow you to confidently choose and mix the colours you need.
Three starter projects - a simple bird, dolphin and penguin - are the perfect introduction to the basic techniques before moving on to six larger projects, each set in a simple scene: a parrot, cheetah, panda, giraffes, sea turtle and polar bear.
Matthew includes many handy hints and tip for beginners and improving artists alike to fill you with confidence to create your own stunning watercolour animals.
Review
This is a book that absolutely lives up to its title. Matthew paints birds, mammals and reptiles in a style that is easy to replicate and he provides fully illustrated instructions that explain every step. You’ll never have trouble again with textures, skin, fur, feathers, eyes or any other detail.
These are not animals that live and breathe on the page. That element of character we so admire in the best animal paintings is missing, but that’s deliberate. This is a book for the beginner and it produces recognisable, realistic results without over-elaboration. Work through this and you’ll be able to replicate what Matthew does and be ready to move on to those books that do include the elusive element of character.
There are nine full demonstrations, as well as preliminary projects that concentrate on specific techniques including wet-in-wet, drybrush and lifting out. It’s nice that all this is done in an actual painting (of an elephant), rather than with abstract marks that have all the excitement of practising scales. Just be sure to pay attention at this stage, though. As an added bonus, traceable outlies are provided, so you’re freed from worrying about getting form and proportion right at this stage.
This is a book that knows exactly what it’s required to do and delivers it with considerable aplomb.
