Painting complex creatures with simplicity, and without losing their true character, was a signature skill of Charley Harper (American, 1922 2007). He painted animals from all continents, both wild and domestic, and created now famous posters for organizations that care for and protect animals. He combined his talent with a respect for the world s creatures to create artwork that has delighted animal lovers for decades.
Harper grew up on a farm in West Virginia and studied at the Art Students League of New York and the Art Academy of Cincinnati. In 1947 Harper and his wife, Edie, went on a six-month journey through the United States. While at the Grand Canyon, he understood that realism couldn t capture its immensity. Harper decided he must reduce what he saw to its simplest forms a decision that led directly to his self-described minimal realist style. His classic animal artwork that uses clear geometric forms is perfect for a set of coloring books.
Inside are twenty-two pages of Charley Harper s playful animals, with his full-color illustrations featured on the inside of the front and back covers. Don t forget about the blank pages at the end we ve left them there for you to draw the animals you find in your world.

About the Author
Charley Harper was an American original who created his art from his home studio in Cincinnati, Ohio, until his death in 2007, at the age of eight-four. He is beloved for his delightful, graphic, and often humorous illustrations of nature, animals, insects, and people alike. Charley liked to say that when he paints a bird, he doesn't count all the feathers in the wings he just counts the wings. Minimal realism, he called it, and his unique and precise style continue to resonate and inspire his admirers.
