Painting Animals

This book details each step in the process of Christophe Drochon’s hyper-realistic technique. His method yields realistic wildlife paintings — from initial quick life sketches to more detailed, painstaking studio work.

The illustrations are strikingly realistic yet dreamlike. Many of them focus on the eyes — of birds, otters, big cats, deer, bear, and other animals. A first-time look into the techniques of this French wildlife artist, Painting Animals is for any artist who wishes to capture the magic of wildlife, whether in charcoal, pastels, acrylics, or oil.
