Jonathan Newey – författare

Capture the mystery and magic of the ocean by drawing this collection of 28 aquatic creatures. 

Award-winning artist Jonathan Newey teaches you to transform simple shapes into characterful creatures including dolphins, clownfish, crabs, jellyfish, whales, sharks, turtles and more.

There are 28 different sea creatures to create, in a variety of poses and styles. Each project starts with a few basic outlines and progresses into a finished tonal drawing; a final coloured version shows you how to develop your drawing even further. Perfect for beginners, as well as budding artists, you’ll be amazed how easily you too can bring the ocean to life with this inspiring guide.
