The Illustrated Bald Eagle - Denny Rogers

The bald eagle, an icon of majesty and grace, is a much-loved subject of carvers, sculptors, and artists. However, accurately capturing and portraying the physical splendor of the American national symbol can be a challenge if you're not working with an authentic model. In The Illustrated Bald Eagle , illustrator, sculptor, and wilderness enthusiast Denny Rogers offers meticulous and comprehensive reference drawings as a solution to this dilemma. A result of Denny's careful study of a live eagle, these drawings deliver every realistic detail of the bird - down to each feather - that can be infused into your artistic creations.

Once available in full-size prints, these informative drawings by Denny Rogers were immensely popular among bird carvers and painters for their anatomical accuracy. Now, with the release of The Illustrated Bald Eagle , you can pore over every detail from each print in an easy-to-access volume.

In this thorough and fascinating visual study of the bald eagle, you'll find:

• Proportion charts that reduce each full-scale measurement so that accurate patterns can be created in any size.
• Detailed line drawings of flight and contour feathers
• Exclusive color charts with paint references created by award-winning bird carver Lori Corbett
• An opening chapter of in-depth information regarding the bald eagle's habitat and physiology
