Drawing and Painting Horses
Editorial Reviews Book Description The first book to offer in-depth instruction in the art of drawing and painting horses, this study examines the development of time-honored equine art in sporting, portrait, and country life painting.
A gifted specialist shows how line, shape, form, light, color, value, space, and design are applied to drawing and painting the horse. Step-by-step lessons detail equine anatomy, skeletal structure, and musculature; differences among breeds; techniques for quick life sketching versus working from photographs; how to include riders on horseback; and basic landscape settings. Fine examples of contemporary equine painting are included. About the Author Barbara Oelke, whose work has been shown in numerous exhibitions, conducts workshops for the American Academy of Equine Art. She lives in Maryland.
