A beautiful book for artists and non-artists alike, Feb 5 2011
By Hiker "rockymtnspirit" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Draw and Paint Realistic Horses: Projects in Pencil, Acrylics and Oills (Paperback)
I just received this book and it is fantastic. Even if you cannot draw more than stick figures, the artist makes you feel that you can create masterpieces. If you are not into creating your own art, this book stands alone as a wonderful art book with beautiful drawings and paintings by the artist. Highly recommended!

This review is from: Draw and Paint Realistic Horses: Projects in Pencil, Acrylics and Oills (Paperback)
I really like this book. The advice on mixing realistic colors and the order in which to apply different tones is great. Painting is a new medium for me. The projects offered are quality and the artist is talented.However, for the cost of the book I would like to have had more painting projects. The drawing section was not of interest to me. I would still buy again. The horses are much more realistic than any other painting book I have come across.
over all good purchase :)
