"The definitive reference guide on the subject."--American
Artist
"This technical treasure is sure to find an audience among artists
and serious animal enthusiasts alike."--Booklist
"An excellent tool for beginner or master painter, sculptor, or
illustrator."--Art Times
"The work of artist Eliot Goldfinger combines scientific rigor with
aesthetic discrimination. In its wide scope and copious detail, his
new book on animal anatomy is an invaluable reference for anyone
intent on the vivid depiction of animal life, including painters,
sculptors and animators. Artistic anatomy has fallen on hard times
in recent years; no one has done more to bring it out of the
doldrums--with this book and its predecessor on human
anatomy--than
Eliot Goldfinger."--Gary Faigin, Artist; Co-founder and Artistic
Director of the Seattle Academy of fine Arts; Instructor of
anatomy, painting and drawing; Author of The Artist's Complete
Guide to Facial
Expression
"Animal Anatomy for Artists is an essential reference for any
artist working with animals. It provides remarkably extensive
material on the horse, cow, lion, and dog, and strong basic
material on numerous other species, domestic and exotic. Goldfinger
presents material that is not available in any other anatomy book
in print. I, and many of my colleagues familiar with his excellent
and important text, Human Anatomy for Artists, are fortunate
to have this book for our use as well as that of our students.
Animal Anatomy for Artists is an exciting and major addition to the
literature of art education."--David Klass, Artist; Instructor in
animal and human
anatomy at the New York Academy of Art in New York City and the
Loveland Academy of Fine Arts in Loveland, Colorado
"While this book is indeed useful to artists, Animal Anatomy for
Artists is so much more than an anatomy reference book--it is Eliot
Goldfinger's graphic celebration of the wonders and intricacies of
animal anatomy, a visual testimony to his consummate skill as an
anatomist and an artist. To appreciate the way the animals are put
together, use this book, and along the way, marvel at the depth and
range of its author."--Richard Ellis, Natural history
painter and writer; Author and illustrator of Great White Shark,
Aquagenesis, and The Empty Ocean
