This is a great book for learning to draw birds in an artistic way more so than a realistic wich is exactly what I was looking for. Drawing has always been a love of mine, so drawing what I see comes quite naturally. John Busby's book helps to develop a sense of emotion and energy in your birdart rather than just a plain copy of what you see around you, drawing the world the way you see it instead of the way it is supposed to be.
