How to Watercolor Animals
type: Product
description: Paint 26 friendly animals with watercolor in just a few lively brushstrokes—no outlines needed, only color, movement, and imagination. A rabbit with long ears, a waddling penguin, a stripey cat, a smiling crocodile, a majestic lion… young artists can paint a whole animal before the inspiration has time to disappear. Clear, picture-led instructions show where to begin on the page and how to build each creature from simple shapes: ovals, circles, curves, tails, paws, wings, and fins. Then, once the paint is dry, a few black-ink details bring every animal to life. Inside, children will learn how to: Work with watercolor, colored ink, or gouache Mix colors and use the white of the paper Paint 26 animals, from mice and dogs to giraffes and elephants Create playful variations in poses, patterns, fur, feathers, and spots There is no “wrong” animal here. A snout can be too big, legs can be short, and every brushstroke can lead somewhere surprising. With thick paper, a large brush, water, and plenty of blank sheets, painting becomes a cheerful creative activity for beginners. A gentle, confidence-building art book for children ages 5 and up, with the easy-to-follow spirit young readers may recognize from Ed Emberley drawing books—now in bright, expressive watercolor.[AuthorName]By Marguerite Courtieu[/AuthorName][AuthorBio]Marguerite Courtieu is a French illustrator and graphic artist based in Paris.
