The Creature Garden: An Illustrator's Guide to Beautiful
Beasts & Fictional Fauna
by Zanna Goldhawk; Harry Goldhawk
With all the focus lately on adult coloring books and
creative journaling, I wanted to check out this book for illustrators. I don’t
fancy myself a sketch artist, and oftentimes my work is elementary, but this
book makes drawing animals a bit easier.
If I had a copy of this in hardcover, I might have attempted
to draw some of the animals. You can go on Amazon and see a few of the images
from inside the book. When teaching, artists give us the circles or other basic shapes
so we can build on those. As a non-sketcher (ha!), even that intimidates me.
But if you were serious about sketching and wanted a tool to
use for fictional flora and fauna, this is a great one. You’ll find some
fantasy here, which is freeing. Every creature doesn’t have to be photo
perfect.
So, indulge your creative side!
I received a short-term free ebook copy from the publisher
in exchange for my unbiased opinions.
