Horses have been domesticated for over 5,000 years! This means they play an important role in the lives of humans. This book provides young artists with a wealth of information about these gentle, yet powerful creatures. Artists will have the opportunity to learn to draw a number of different breeds of horses, including Arabians, Appaloosas, and Shetland ponies. Each complex illustration is simplified to make the process easier. Artists start by drawing a simple shape and add to it to achieve the desired result. A picture glossary helps young artists make connections to things they have seen and words they may not have known. This book is sure to help artists learn to draw these galloping giants.
