Drawing Birds

John Busby

Fully revised and updated new version of the best-selling 'RSPB Handbook to the art of drawing birds'. John Busby is a well known and much-loved bird artist, with a wonderfully light, intuitive drawing style. Busby beautifully conveys his own remarkable ability to capture the grace and motion of living birds, illustrating his ideas and suggestions with many examples of his own work.

He also uses illustrations from 37 other talented bird artists to demonstrate a variety of principles and techniques. The text covers a wide range of topics, including choice of media, sketching from life, composition and different ways of interpreting subject matter. This is a beautiful and inspiring book which will appeal to aspiring artists and anyone who has ever been entranced by the beauty of birds. 80 colour and 50 black-and-white illustrations. 144 pages.
