How to Draw Dogs, Cats and Horses
About this book
Discover how to create realistic drawings of dogs, cats, and horses with this easy-to-follow guide. Written and illustrated by a noted creator of art instruction books, the manual emphasizes the importance of capturing your own distinctive vision to reveal the subject's special characteristics.
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.

Information

DOGS
No other animal has within its family as many different breeds as the dog.
There are fat dogs with crooked legs, thin dogs with long legs, blunt-nosed dogs, pointed-nosed dogs, flop-eared and sharp upright-eared dogs, long-haired and short-haired dogs. There are dogs with long whip-like tails and dogs with tiny powder-puff tails. There are ferocious dogs and timid dogs, lap dogs and fierce hunters.
Every shape, size, shade and character, is to be found among dogs.
But โ and this is why you can learn to draw them all โ the general, basic structure is the same in all dogs.
Learn to draw these basic shapes and forms, and you will be able to add all the surface differences easily.
This is the framework on which you can build your dog.

Notice how few details have been added to make a finished drawing of a dog.
