An Inspiration for all wildlife artist

First thing. This is not a tutorial book. It's an inspiration book for artist and a gorgeous coffee table book. I am an artist and my only disappointment is that some of the art captions does not tell you what medium the artist is using. You have to guess at it and sometimes you can not tell from oil or acrylic. They are that good.

An Inspiration

This is a gorgeous book containing wonderful illustrations (and images of a few dramatic sculpture pieces) from sixty wildlife artists in a diversity of style and creativity. It's a great book for inspiration but this is not a tutorial book just to note.

With Grimm and Steiner you can't go wrong!

Let me just start off by saying this is a great inspirational book for anyone interested in wildlife art or just a a plain fanatic of it. This book is loaded with All-Star artists! Practically all my favorites and it even shows work from my buddy and former roommate Adam Grimm (Youngest Federal Duck Stamp Winner).... ...I've done allot of studying and these artist are the one's to look up too. Their work is outstanding and if you set goals to have art like these artist you can't loose. Coming from a Wildlife Artist.....5 Stars! ... ...

A must for anyone who loves Wildlife Art!

I purchased this book and it is the best of my collection. All the masters of wildlife art are included: Robert Bateman, Carl Brenders, Terry Isaac, Lester-Seerey and so on. Great work and a bio on each.Two thumbs up.
