A Guide to Creating Dog Portraits is designed to create dog portraits using pastels and paints. There are 20 chapters teaching different techniques to produce initial sketches of a variety of dogs. The sketches take the reader through fully illustrated stages, step-by-step, to the finished piece. There are six examples in the book to guide you. A Guide to Creating Dog Portraits lists all the tools required and includes a chapter with a unique explanation of 'observation' and how important this is when doing a portrait.
Kim Styles discovered from an early age that she had an artistic flair and was greatly encouraged by her family to develop her creativity. A childhood spent in Yorkshire connected Kim with the countryside and inspired her artistic endeavours. Kim is a member of the WWF and is passionate about animal welfare. In this beautiful illustrated book, Kim shares her passion and explains in detail how to create a portrait to be proud of.
