About this ebook
Clear, step-by-step illustrations demonstrate how to start by placing basic shapes in proper relation to each other. Further advice explains how to fill the general shape and portray the animal's essential nature by observing its moods and behavior—from a dog's playfulness to the relaxed grace of a sleeping cat and a horse's quiet dignity.

- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5I picked this up because it sounded like a good learning source for my grandkids and their adventures in art. And it has been. Originally published in 1959, the author did a nice job of explaining the hows and whys of what to focus on when starting to sketch different animals. And those can be the focus when sketching other animals, and branching out into other forms of artwork. It's good for any age - even someone with a total lack of artistic ability like myself!
