Very nice book with large full colour images. Bateman is undoubtedly
an excellent artist but I don't believe this book shows him
at his best. There are some excellent paintings but in my
opinion he has published better books. |

| This
has got to be my favorite book of the moment! It's a large
book 11in x 11in with 217 pages and filled to the brim with
some of the most fantastic African wildlife art. Although
the finished paintings are great the thing I like best are
the pastel, oil and pencil sketches which appear to have so
much life. |

| This
book is like no other that I have, as the title says it's
about brushwork, it delves in deeply with the application
of applying the paint to the canvas to get desired effects,
the book concentrates on oils and water-soluble oils. It's
got to have a HOT rating just because it is so different,
a great reference book. |

Many
people think Ching is one of the greatest wildlife artists
and this book appears to cement that very fact. A beautiful
large format book that should be referred to often for pure
inspiration.The text also gives a fascinating insight into
the mind of the artist. |

| There
is very little in the line of instruction in this book I think
it should really have been called where to photograph wildlife.
It is more like a travel book, describing the type of wildlife
to be found in places like - Africa, Australia, Florida, India
etc. Nothing on Europe though. Great pictures throughout. |

| This
book really lives up to it's title, very in depth details
of how to get close to wildlife, with sections on - hides,
feeding areas, stalking, camouflage, camera equipment etc
etc. A really useful book if you want to get close to WILD
animals. |
