Description
by Shirish Deshpande (Author)
"We have more to learn from animals than the animals have to learn from us." - Anthony Douglas Williams
Animals are fascinating drawing subjects for most artists. Drawing lively animal portraits brings with it another level of excitement, not to mention challenges, such as bringing out that mischievous spark in a dog's eyes or that vicious promise of impending violence in a lion's eyes. The facial proportions of the animals, the fur or the pattern of scales on their bodies are yet other challenges difficult to master.
Not anymore.
In this book, you will learn how to draw expressive and lively portraits of a range of animals, from your humble house pets to vicious forest dwellers.
