Media Reviews
Another one from the popular How to Draw range, this time well known fantasy artist Paul Bryn Davies shows us in a series of simple steps how to create a selection of different vampires ans supernatural creatures. He uses a simple method of shapes, mainly circles and ovals joined together by lines to show us how easy it is to draw these, in a step by step format from the initial step to the finished portrait. The beauty of this book is that like all the How to Draw series it's so simple to follow each step. The first step is drawn in blue and subsequent steps in a brown, with the last step changing back to blue so its easy to see the steps you should be following or have completed. Its incredibly easy for even a very beginner to create great drawings following Paul's simple instructions. If you'd love to draw but think you can't this series is the one you want, it demystifies all those problems and shows you just how simple drawing is by following a few key instructions. Using Paul's book you can learn to create some scary vampires and supernatural creatures.-JeannieZelos.com This slim volume is part of the Simple StepsA drawing series, which covers a variety of subjects, including animals, plants, and imaginary creatures. As the title suggests, Davies's (How To Draw Fairies in Simple Steps) book is straightforward and narrowly focused. Save for a brief introduction, it is entirely comprised of drawings. Readers are shown how to sketch and draw cartoonlike line drawings of fanged, cape-clad vampires. Children and younger teens will enjoy this book.-Library Journal USA
