This Playful Painting Pets book is perfect for anyone who loves to paint. My son’s girlfriend loves to paint so I thought that a new book would inspire her. Now is the time to start thinking about making gifts for Christmas, and a small painting would be perfect for a pet lover.

Playful Painting Pets
From an affectionate French Bulldog and astute Boxer to a sassy tabby cat, if you love animals and art, then your tail will be wagging with each of our easy-to-learn lessons and the humor that goes with them. You’ll be an expert in gouache, pencil, and ink in no time!
Playful Painting Pets is the first title in Walter Foster’s new compact and portable Playful Painting series, and it is aimed at artists, doodlers, and painting enthusiasts. There has never been a better time to learn to paint and illustrate whimsical portraits of your pets and favorite animals! The startup is easy, with minimal tools and materials required.
You’ll be inspired to create when you see our gallery of dozens of cute cat and dog breeds (plus mixes!) as well as birds, pigs, rabbits, and other favorites. Then, when you’re ready, dive into exclusive bonus content to see how to use finished artwork in fresh and clever ways.
Artist Faye Moorhouse illustrates this book in her signature friendly, quirky style. Not an artist? Playful Painting: Pets is a perfect gift for the animal lover in your life and a must-have for anyone who’s shared their life and living space with furry or feathered friends.
My thoughts:
Playful Painting Pets is the perfect painting book for beginners. The book starts with an introduction that includes the basic supplies you’ll want to have on hand. You can paint right on the pages in the book. Or, if you prefer, you can use a sketchbook for your paintings. Each of the pets you learn to paint is explained step by step.
All you need to do is to paint each step and your final painting will look just like hers. It reminds me of the painting I did when I visited Pinot’s Palette on my last blogging trip. The designs are definitely doable and loads of fun. All you’ll need to do is to mat and frame the painting and you’ll have a great gift. Buy it now!
