Drawing Cartoons That Sell by John Byrne

Cartoons are fun to draw and do not require traditional drawing skills - which means that anyone can draw cartoons once they know some of the tricks of the trade. This title is full of practical ideas and exercises to help the reader develop cartoon drawing skills and turn an enjoyable hobby into a profitable enterprise. Written in an informal and lively style, and illustrated throughout with cartoons, the book includes helpful advice on: drawing cartoons - from simple characters to comic strips; finding funny ideas for cartoons and writing successful jokes; developing your own recognizable cartoon style; identifying the right markets and preparing your work for print; and adopting a business-like approach and effective selling techniques.
