I'm no artist, but this book really impressed me with how it went about teaching people to draw and paint birds. It's intimidating and comforting at the same time, because it is incredibly detailed and covers just about everything you would need to know.
But the thing that surprised me the most about The Laws Guide is that, as a birder, you can learn much more than how to draw birds. It covers some very interesting aspects of bird anatomy that I hadn't come across elsewhere, and illustrates some things that I had never noticed before.
Altogether, I'd recommend this book to just about anyone, from relatively experienced artists to those who think they might like to draw birds.
