Synopsis
This newest addition to the "Drawing Made Easy" series pairs our best-selling medium with the wildly popular subject of dogs and puppies. Unlike similar titles on the market, this book doesn't simply provide a collection of dogs for artists to re-create exactly. Instead, the book focuses on techniques specific to drawing accurate depictions of dogs and puppies - from creating a variety of fur types and features to achieving accurate proportions - so that artists can use the knowledge to render their own canine portraits. The book also includes a series of easy-to-follow, step-by-step projects showcasing a range for dog breeds, poses, and props. This allows artists to practice their developing skills, guiding them from simple sketches through the study of various techniques to polished renderings.

Customer Reviews

All amateurs should buy this book
I have purchased a couple of books on drawing dogs and I must say that this book has been the clearest of them all. The instructions are easy to follow and I found the pages on drawing fur most informative. I have had trouble with drawing light short fur but after reading this book have been impressed with how my own work has improved. The only info I wish he had dealt with in this book is when drawing light coloured eyes as this is one thing I am still struggling on.

A must for all would be animal artists!

exellent
what an excellent book. It is very well layed out and explained, the art is amazing well worth buying. I hope this artist produces more books.

Worth every penny
Just got this book and it is the best drawing book I have ever owned. It has step by step exercises, which really help with practicing to draw. It is fully illustrated and there are clear pictures and instructions on how to draw eyes, noses and ears. All of them I have found difficult, but with this book I feel so confident that I am going to achieve a lifelike picture. This has to be the best dog drawing book out there. I did fear it was going to be a waste of money, but how wrong could I be! If you are looking for an easy and informative book on how to draw dogs, then your money will certainly not be wasted on this.
