The first thing the author suggests on how to draw a dragon is this: “Cautiously approach the dragon, offer it a piece of candy or a little sister, and draw while it happily munches away.” That sounds like excellent advice to me!

DragonArt: How to Draw Fantastic Dragons and Fantasy CreaturesArtist J “NeonDragon” Peffer (NeonDragonArt.com) has created the brilliant drawing book DragonArt: How to Draw Fantastic Dragons and Fantasy Creatures to help you create mythical beasts that you can be proud of. You will learn to draw dragons from all different perspectives, in flight and at rest, including different styles of heads, limbs, wings, horns, scales, tails and other details.

This book features:

  • Full-colour illustrations to inspire readers
  • An engaging text, including “historical facts about dragons”
  • Step-by-step demonstrations of how to draw other fantasy creatures
  • Hints, tips & tricks provided by DragonArt’s mascot, Dolosus

As well as learning to drawing dragons, you will also find instruction on other mythical creatures in this book, including griffins, gargoyles and basilisks. This book contains more than 30 lessons broken down into simple colour-coded steps. Lessons begin with drawing basic shapes, and progress to including details such as claws and wings, eventually concluding with how to draw amazing finished dragons and beasts. With the advice and instruction in DragonArt, artists will be able to open up their imaginations and draw their own types and styles of dragon with the only limit being their imagination!
