From the Author

As a child, cartoons were magical. But I wanted to do more than just watch cartoons, or read comics, I wanted to make them. When I was a kid there weren’t any classes and there were only a few books on cartooning, so for me learning became a trial and error process. I did learn how to draw cartoons and have drawn thousands of them over the years. When I had a chance to teach cartooning as an artist in residence, I discovered that I could teach nearly anyone to draw using a few simple shapes. My students didn’t have to use the trial and error process I went through, they learned right away! These simple methods became the core of my teaching which led to the first three editions of Cartooning Basics. Students really liked Cartooning Basics and even wanted even more lessons in new areas. With this edition students get all the good stuff from the past plus over 400 new drawing examples and all new lessons on perspective drawing, comic strips and animation. Comments from students and teachers indicate that these additions are well received and will make learning even more fun. As for me, I am still teaching, and drawing from my studio in Minnesota. And yes, cartoons are still magical. -Duane Barnhart-
