A Fun and Informative Guide to Cartooning

I have been an artist for some years now, but I am always looking for intersting and fun ideas. Al Bohl's book offers great advice and lots of hands on activities for the skilled and not so skilled. I have never been very adept at characatures or portrait drawing and his book has helped me move past many roadblocks. It us fun, and filled with good advice and humor - absolutely essential for me. He offers advice on cartooning as a career as well. I loved it.
