Thumbs up Keith Brockie: Wildlife art

I was cruising Ebay about 2 weeks ago and found his first book, when he was just starting out in 1980.

The book is mostly sketches, and just delightful.

So I found two more on Amazon used and ordered them today.
I am enjoying this first book of drawings slowly, in bed each night. They are so beautiful to fall asleep to.

Here is one link of his paintings...

Here is an example link of his drawings from life:

.

Look around this site... lots of interesting photos of him in the wilds, doing his work. He is also a bander of birds. In Scotland they call it ringer.

He really gets into bad weather and other situations as I am reading in his first book
This is the one I bought:

.

The sensitivity in his drawing is fantastic! He really feels the personality of each bird/animal in a very nice way!

I hope some of our posters here will enjoy his work too.
