Deer: Artists' Impressions Reviews

This book is a modern interpretation of deer, and not only red deer, in the Highlands but also in various parts of the UK including fallow deer, roe deer, sika deer, muntjac and Chinese water deer. Each have a magic of their own that is represented by the eight leading sporting artists in this book. In their own way the artists have portrayed the deer, and a few other aspects on the way, and the result is a rich assemblage of works. -- Ray Collier
Capturing the beauty of out natural world on screen, print or canvas is a tough job. in Deer: Artists' Impressions, sporting artists including Keith Sykes and Rodger McPhail explain the lengths they go to in order to gain lengthy access to their quarry in its natural environment, and in doing so offer an amazing insight into both themselves and their work. The writings certainly add zest to the dozens of remarkably vivid watercolours, pencil sketches, oils and scraperboard illustrations of the six species found on our shores. With a foreword by HRH The Prince of Wales the book comes with royal approval, and deservedly so.
