    Introduction:
    If you are fond of animals, and like to learn and draw them, this book is for you. Drawing animals isn't new, as we know it was already done by our ancestors from 40,000 years ago, mostly seen in Prehistoric cave paintings, it’s painted on walls and ceilings, most images that are drawn were; Horses, Deer, Bison and large wild cattle called “Auroch”. Their tools for drawing include Charcoal, Hematite, and some coloring pigments. Today we have graphite pencils and other efficient drawing tools, if you can see the style of their drawings, there are already forms, especially there line drawings, They only lack for what I can say are the definition, depth and proportion, I can’t argue of their style, if they did that intentionally or not, as we look and compare it to Renaissance art that have Perspective, Emotion, Light and Shadows, and a Realistic touch.

    This book will help you draw realistic animals in pencil, along the way we will be learning, how we can see through things to make your drawing easy and fun, I will be guiding you through step by step, and after you finish the course you will be drawing animals that you like, like your pet, or friends and neighbors or somebody’s pet, your school drawing projects, you can impress your teacher (a plus from your drawing skill), or make a living out of your Animals Portrait drawings. Which I’m looking forward to, and I will be happy to hear from you, if that day will happen. And also get a copy of my other book “Learn How to Draw Portraits of Famous People in Pencil for the Absolute Beginner”, it’s a good companion for this book, it will teach you how to draw Human Portraits. And don’t forget to read some other titles.
