The day of the dead drawing book

Artist and professional illustrator Maddy Brook has created a wonderfully accessible instructional drawing book showing readers how to create dazzling, Mexican-inspired skeleton art.

There are 16 spectacular projects to sketch, including traditional sugar skull designs, dancing mariachi skeleton bands, elaborate shrines, famous characters from Mexican folklore, gravestones and tombs, and other hauntingly beautiful scenes inspired by the remarkable 'Day of the Dead' festival.

Maddy provides clear information on materials and easy, step-by-step tutorials which make the techniques and projects accessible for the absolute beginner as well as those with intermediate drawing skills.
