This is the 30th Anniversary Edition of a mega-bestseller, which has sold more than 100,000 copies and continues to sell well. It uses studies, step-by-step drawings and anatomical progressions to teach how to draw a variety of animals. Everyone loves to draw animals, whether hobbyist or professional, cartoonist or fine art painter. To draw an animal well, it is necessary to know and understand its personality and behaviour in order to express its individual features. "Drawing Animals" demonstrates, using a sequence of studies and step-by-step progressions, how to draw various types of animals - showing their similarities, differences and unique characteristics. All ten chapters are organised in the following manner: front, side and three-quarter view of fully drawn animals; form sketches; skeleton; musculature; surface anatomy; step-by-step demonstrations; typical actions and poses; the young; head views; and, forms of similar animals.
