To draw a galloping horse you must first know its bones. Édouard Cuyer's manual gives the artist comparative anatomy made useful: the trunk, the limbs, and the head across many animals, muscle and skeleton laid out for the pencil. A studio companion for anyone who draws beasts. Master the frame beneath the fur.

Every copy includes a printable PDF edition, a beautifully typeset book you can print, mark up in the margins, and keep on your shelf. Yours the moment you own it.
