Draw 48 animal characters in short, simple steps

Four paws-up for Cartoonimals! This book makes drawing animal characters super easy and more fun than a barrel of monkeys.

Over 45 step-by-step demonstrations help you draw a cool and comical variety of characters, from a guitar-strumming octopus, to a porcupine pirate, to a surfing vulture.

Before you know it, you'll be bringing your own original creations to life. With the expert advice in this book, if you can dream it, you can draw it!

Harry Hamernik has spent over a decade teaching drawing for attractions such as Sea World, Legoland, Disneyland, Knott's Berry Farm and Kings Island as manager of entertainment arts operations; as well as teaching at the Art Academy of Los Angeles and Orange County Art Studios.
