I've always enjoyed art, and while I don't consider myself an artist, I do like to draw and paint occasionally. When I saw this, I thought it was be something I would enjoy, and I might try to draw or paint a few of the pictures. I ended up loving all of the different images, and can't wait to try them all! I'm also sharing the book with my little sister who is the read artist, and she's already tried a few of the animals and they turned out amazing! This book is a great resource for anyone who enjoys art and animals, and as mentioned above, is good for all ages! (Well, it's a little complicated, so more like 8-10 and up) but artists of all levels can try the different techniques and see improvement as they practice.
