<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>"Originally published in 2013 by Edicola Publishing, The Netherlands"--Title page verso.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br>Marjolein Kruijt's deep and abiding love of animals is obvious in this book, which will teach you the technical aspects of drawing domestic and wild animals, such as different breeds of dog and cat, and long and short fur. In addition, it will help you to capture their inner nature.<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br><b>Library Journal 2017</b> <p/>Artist Kruijt approaches animals with admiration, pulling inspiration from their ability to be always "in the moment." The value of working from observation, whether outdoors on location, in zoos, at home with your pet, or in a museum with taxidermied specimens, is emphasized. Photography is discussed as a reference tool, but readers are cautioned to be interpretive and sparing with its use. Early chapters discuss animal anatomy and behavior, accompanied by lots of successful sketches and paintings. The final section is full of step-by-step demonstrations. Tips, such as animal-specific color palettes, are provided throughout. <b>VERDICT Animal lovers of all artistic skill levels will want to check out this guide.</b><br><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br>She started her blog in 2008 mainly to find other people with the same interest who were not at least 25 years older than her. Writing it has helped her to find lots of new friends and started discussions and debates on craft-related issues that are close to her heart.
