"You'll learn everything there is to learn about drawing animals." — Collectors' Corner


This thoughtful and incisive guidebook, created by Ken Hultgren, former animator for Walt Disney Studios, has helped generations of artists of all skill levels improve their ability to draw a wide variety of animal forms, either realistically or as caricatures.


You'll learn why the author considers a clear understanding of animal anatomy and movement crucial for realistic construction, action analysis, and caricature.

Mr. Hultgren offers expert advice and tips on how to capture the essential movement and character of animals, and how to avoid the stiff, wooden poses that are unfortunately seen all too frequently.

Throughout, the emphasis is on construction drawings (there are over 700 line illustrations and halftones) rather than on text. This means the student is able to view the development of the drawing by example rather than theory or description.


The book begins with introductory chapters devoted to the special techniques of drawing animals, the use of line, establishing mood and feeling, conveying action, and the various brush techniques.  Mr. Hultgren then directs our attention to individual animal forms — horses, deer, cats, cows and bulls, giraffes, camels, gorillas, pigs, and many more.

His instruction on animal caricature is especially valuable to the legions of artists avidly interested in this subject. The Art of Animal Drawing belongs in the library of any artist — student, amateur, or professional — and is indispensable to all who are   interested in drawing animals.

Reprint of the Sir Isaac Pitman & Sons, London, 1951 edition.
