Synopsis

Most beginners think drawing animals is too difficult a task, requiring more skills than they can master. That doesn't have to be the case, however, as this series of 10 progressive demonstrations proves. All the basic techniques necessary to capture an animal are here—tone, solidity, shape, character, expression, and movement—along with a discussion of various media. Find out how to get the features and proportions right, convey a pet's personality, depict the texture of fur, and portray motion. The many animals featured in the exercises include dogs, cats, rabbits, pigs, squirrels, and ponies. Complete novices will be amazed at what they can achieve with these handy tricks and tips.
