        This guide by self-taught artist and instructor Mattson demonstrates steps for drawing fun, whimsical, and cute animals. She first describes materials needed, such as pens, paper, and brushes. The pictures also show the techniques involved, such as strokes, shading, and variation within a shape. The author offers three approaches for drawing these animals: observe, play, and refine. The book contains in-depth descriptions and illustrations, which demonstrate how to define lines and textures and the importance of color play and shading. The pages are filled with different projects readers can practice and then develop their own creations. Animals shown include a hedgehog, a duck, and an elephant. Mattson concludes with some helpful tips. VERDICT This book is great for artists with the desire to learn more about drawing.--Jackie Hay
