This, the fourth book in the Drawing in Color series, teaches readers how to draw realistic animals with colored pencils. Lee Hammond’s amazing easy-to-follow techniques enable you to render a variety of wonderful animals, from cats and dogs to horses, squirrels, tigers and more. These skills can be used to draw any kind of mammal accurately. Hammond’s special graphing system makes all the difference, helping to translate the animal poses seen into drawings on the page. You’ll also learn other important illustration techniques, including layering, blending and shading. Additional guidelines help duplicate realistic eyes, ears, mouths, feet, fur, and hide. You’ll feel like you can draw from the start with achievable examples, even if you’re a first-timer.

This book is very well written and takes step by step to show how to create and finish top quality drawings. Great attention to detail and will improve even an advanced artist. Easy to follow and gives information to properly proportion and size your drawing. Especially informative to get faces right and finely detailed.

I purchased this book hoping for specific instructions on colors to use and how to use them. Although there are demonstrations they seem shallow with little usable information. I wish I had looked at the book in a bookstore before buying. I have other Lee Hammond books but this one seems to be put together quickly and published based on her reputation rather than content.

I have been drawn many years, Lee`s books are like reading a novel, with excitement
of something new and refreshing on each page. You can never stop learning, and remembering
that you have forgotten. Thank you Lee.

As a beginner, I found “Drawing in Color” is very helpful to me. I have another two books called “Lifelike drawing in colored pencil” by Lee Hammond and “Colored Pencil Solution” by Janie Gildow and Barbara Benedetti Newton. These three books combined give me most tips and techniques that I was able to draw four beautiful colored pencil pictures in short period of time.

This book will teach you how to get your shadows right, to express the fur of animals, their body, their face. It explains how to shade simple objects, how to draw without thinking of the result, with the help of a grid. It teaches you how to render the different parts of the bodies of very different animals. For me it was a great help, I really think it can help out beginners in making their drawings more realistic.
