Watercolor Basics Drawing and Painting Birds (ISBN 0891349197)

A great watercolorist instruction reference.:
Shirley Porter's Watercolor Basics: Drawing And Painting Birds tells how to paint birds in watercolor, providing a simple source of basics for beginning bird painters. From poses and backgrounds to bird-watching tips, this uses exercises to show how to create easy patterns.

Excellent book for decorative painters:
The diagrams and instructions are very clear. Even a non-talented person like me can paint birds following her lessons.
