About this ebook

How to Draw Magical, Monstrous & Mythological Creatures is for artistic tweens who dream about the magical, mystical, and darker side of things.

One part nightmare, one part imagination, and one part legend, the creatures featured in this book are the ultimate bad guys—the subjects of myths and tales told for thousands of years. While other people may not believe in vampires, elves or werewolves, there's just something about these strange creatures that rings true.

Starting with an introduction to various drawing tools and techniques, the goth-inspired title in the Walter Foster Studio series will have enthusiastic artists learning to draw their favorite creatures and beasts across three categories:
  • Magical Characters
  • Mythological Creatures
  • Monsters.

Join renowned illustrator and designer Bob Berry as he guides you through an illustrated labyrinth of monstrous, magical, and mythological characters. Along the way, you'll learn to draw everything you see—from a fire-breathing, treasure-guarding dragon to a scythe-gripping Grim Reaper, snake-haired Medusa, and mystical sorceress. Aspiring fantasy artists will find inspiration on every page. Additionally, character history, folklore, legends, fun facts, and trivia-driven sidebars add to this fantastic experience.
