Forest Animals and Wildlife

Beginning with the basic shapes of circles, ovals, and triangles, pictorial directions for 20 forest animals and wildlife are shown.  In five or six steps, sketches can go from simple cartoon shapes to a recognizable animal.  Brief information is given about each animal, including a “Fun Fact” in a box with a photograph of the animal.  There are no written instructions however the diagrams are numbered so the progression is obvious.  The first tools and materials used are paper, pencils, a sharpener, and eraser.  Then colored pencils, felt markers, or paints and brush can be used for the finishing touches.  This is one of fifteen books in the Learn to Draw series.
