An insider's view to the dramatic and original award-winning technique of internationally acclaimed wildlife artist John Seerey-Lester.

Seerey-Lester focuses on wildlife, with examples of techniques in oil and acrylic and detailed explanations, all broken down into step-by-step instructions. Painting "the wild side of life" begins, predictably, with palette and brushes, studio and field equipment, then progresses to abstract concepts and composition with sections devoted to color, value, lighting fundamentals, and fieldwork as well as a specific component on painting weather and atmospheric conditions. Whitney Scott
