Each tutorial starts from the basics of materials used to the techniques of using the medium at hand and palette choices where applicable. The CD includes demonstrations in pencil using various techniques from blending with tools and hatching techniques (masked boobies), using a range of pencil hardnesses to smoothen and create blended effects (lion), graphite powder brushed onto paper (Fighting Conch Shell demonstration) to careful hatching on smooth grained paper where smooth detailed effects can be applied without blending (Crayfish). Alla prima (wet-into-wet) oil techniques are demonstrated on the Horse and Mandarin Duck and Seahorses are rendered in fast drying acrylics, whilst the Alaskan Husky uses watercolour and an oil painting bristle brush to create effortless soft fur effects and the Hyacinth Macaw demonstrates the swiftness and vibrancy of pastels. To accompany the videos, this beautifully presented multimedia product provides step-by-step analysis and commentry to each stage of the drawing/painting.
Combining the best of hardback book and video, the Wildlife Art Guide takes a hands on approach with the wonderful intimacy of videos you can watch time and time again.
All software needed to view the pages is provided for on the CD which is logically laid out and easy to use and navigate; the contents of the CD are played directly from the CD itself without any need for installation onto your hard-drive.
