Overview

Animal lovers can easily draw their favorite creatures. It’s simple, with this basic method that divides a complex subject into very manageable steps, making the process accessible and enjoyable. And with drawings of nine species on display, all showcasing the animal’s most prominent features, there’s lots of inspiration to get started. Each demonstration begins with a photograph that provides the basis of the sketch, and also includes a worksheet and a few different breeds. Select from dogs (among them a Pug/Chihuahua mix and a King Charles Spaniel), cats (a Tabby, Chinchilla, Maine Coon), horses, fowl, rabbits, squirrels, raccoons, deer, and foxes. Introductory sections cover tools, materials, and all the fundamental strokes and techniques—including drawing fur and adding texture.
