    About this ebook

    Experience the freedom of watercolor painting and let go of fear!

    You'll have no excuse not to paint when you follow Gina Rossi Armfield as she shares her intuitive and inspirational approach to sketching and painting animals.

    Watercolor is the perfect medium for capturing the flowing textures, patterns and playful personalities of your favorite furry, feathered and farmyard friends. And it's fun using organic, sketchbook-style techniques to create soulful animal portraits. No intimidating exercises--just colorful and expressive works of art!

    The animal field guide is divided into 3 sections--Paws, Claws and Hooves--with 15 different animal projects that each include a photo reference, color palette and sketch template.

    Inside you'll find:
    • Tricks for painting fur, feathers, beaks, claws, hooves and eyes
    • Essential and easy paintbrush and watercolor instruction
    • Guidance for working from photo reference
    • Creative background and text overlay ideas
