This book has a lot of helpful tips and instructions for creating adorable animal art. Not having much experience as an artist myself, I appreciated that the first couple sections deal with materials and techniques. The part about creating fur was particularly helpful.
As the title states, this book is filled with lessons on drawing and painting cute animals (mostly the furry or feathered sort). I like that this book goes a step further. Rather than having you create an image of an animal on an otherwise blank canvas, it has ideas for what to do with the background. Most of the animal studies have instructions on how to fill in the background, but additionally, there are a couple sections devoted to things such as plants and insects that could be added to the picture. At the end there's a brief section with some ideas for putting everything together to create a scene.
Overall, I think this is going to be very helpful to me, and I'm excited to see what I can create!
