Review "Sage instruction for would-be cartoonists from a veteran, self-billed 'Trained Professional Artist.'As the introduction suggests, this is more an overview of Smith's personal approach than a systematic guidebook. He mixes standard starting points-looking analytically at photos or clip art, working from basic 2-D and 3-D shapes-with pages of sample caricatures and cartoons that interpret images in goofy ways or add comical details. Photos of pigs, mostly, but also pictures of an old car, a goat skull and other promising items serve as inspiration for the galleries of quick sketches. Many of these come with hand-lettered comments: 'Light-bulb pig'; 'Here's a picture of an old sofa.' These complement the breezy main text: 'Even food you think is yucky can be fun to draw.' He also describes-though doesn't actually illustrate-using a lightbox, and he closes by urging readers to develop their own styles, providing a pair of blank pages as encouragement to limber up those artistic 'funny bones.' Smith's pictures are always good for a hoot, though tyros will get a truer start from Ed Emberley's classic manuals." -Kirkus Reviews". young artists will come to appreciate that when you use your funny bone to draw, anything can happen." - Through the Looking Glass Children's Book Reviews

0 of 0 people found the following review helpful. It's as much a how-to book as a why-not book. By Brian Hoard I highly recommend this book for young artists who love to draw. As Elwood explains his methods in a fun and easy to grasp way as if he's sitting there beside you. He shows creative techniques that only a trained professional artist would know.If you know of a person who loves to draw and could use some inspiration, get them this book. It's as much a how-to book as a why-not book. Full of Elwood's beautiful colorful hand drawn artwork.
1 of 1 people found the following review helpful. Highly recommended By Jason Curtis I have long been a fan of Elwood's work. In my opinion, this book is a fun read for the young, and the young at heart (like myself). Every page is packed full of fun illustrations, with encouraging text to guide the artist along. The instructions are basic, but I think that's the point. Elwood demonstrates that you can draw just about anything by using nothing more than basic shapes.For young artists, this will provide a great starting point. For older established artists, it's worth purchasing simply to enjoy Elwood's work (which was my reason for buying this).I highly recommend this book.
1 of 1 people found the following review helpful. Wonderfully Funny, Quirky, and Original By Will Osborne Whether you're eight or eighty, this book will tickle your funny bone and inspire you to put it to good use. I laughed out loud frequently as I read Elwood's commentaries and asides, and the illustrations are (no surprise) rich with the quirky humor that has made Elwood one of the most respected illustrators in the business. You should buy at least two copies - one to keep and another (or a dozen!) to give away to anyone who needs a good laugh or wants to pick up a pencil and discover their own inner Elwood. Highly recommended!
