Big Book of Horses to ColorColorists and horse lovers of all ages will treasure this splendid tribute to horses of the world. Illustrator John Green, a specialist in realistic depictions of animals, excels at drawing horses. This collection of his best equine images features draft animals as well as sporting creatures — thoroughbreds, mavericks, coach horses, show horses, polo ponies, and many other magnificent steeds. Informative captions offer accurate background information on each image. | Horse ScenesGalloping steeds, wild ponies, working horses, and show horses—twenty-three lifelike renderings offer colorists a stable of graceful and powerful equine beauties. Paint them, color them, or just admire them! This delightful coloring collection features beautiful drawings, specially printed with light gray lines that virtually disappear with the addition of colors for a finished, professional look; high-quality paper, printed on one side only and suitable for watercolor, colored pencils, and other media; and perforated pages for easy removal from the book. | The Evolution of the HorseEveryone who loves horses will be amazed to see the many forms these magnificent creatures have taken since their first appearance over 50 million years ago. Thirty beautifully rendered, realistic pictures include the familiar animals of today, ancient breeds of the Eocene and Miocene eras, and even the very first horse--which was no bigger than a house cat! | Favorite HorsesHorses run a close second to canines as man's best friend. Colorists fond of these high-spirited animals will be delighted with John Green's accurate, ready-to-color drawings of an impressive variety of equine breeds: Thoroughbred Andalusian; Arabian Percheron; Morgan Hanoverian; Mustang Cleveland Bay; Palomino Clydesdale; Appaloosa Missouri Fox Trotter; Pinto Lipizzaner; and Shetland Pony. Thirty black-and-white images of these prized animals, set against appropriate backgrounds, are accompanied by identifying captions. |
