BIRDS & BEASTS OF AFRICA. Observations of a Wildlife Artist. Bryan Hanlon

1997. Hard cover with dust cover, 128 pages. Very good condition. The dust cover has wear and tear. Over 1kg. 

Here is a gallery of African wildlife painted by one of the world's most gifted young artists. During several visits to his favorite continent, Bryan has studied, sketched, and painted some of the most fascinating creatures in their natural settings. From the cruel truth of the predator lioness felling her prey to the quite elegance of a female eland with her calf, the beauty and dignity of the true wild is captured within the pages of this book. Every major painting is printed in outstanding color reproduction with the artist's initial working sketches detailed alongside.

Bryan Hanlon, who lives in the Wiltshire countryside near Marlborough, England, has a strong following for his wildlife paintings. He has worked on several assignments in Africa. His work is in the true tradition of the artist who works from a live subject rather than relying totally on photographs.
