I started drawing character designs and storyboards for a small animation studio in while in High School. Cartooning and animation was a magical experience to me. I try to bring that experience, as well as art tips, to my readers. Their enthusiasm also motivates me.
Early in my career, my cartoon work got noticed by Watson-Guptill, a premier publisher of art books. They asked me to do a book for them on drawing cartoons. It sold 200,000 copies, which is a healthy number. So we kept going. I discovered that I enjoyed the art of creating books, which has its own special requirements. I also worked as an author for Random House, Quarto and Soho Publishing. In total, I have had 8 million books sold, and have been translated into 20 languages.
My book, "The Master Guide to Drawing Anime: How to Draw Original Characters from Simple Templates" has sold over half a million copies to date and is still very actively in print. An earlier book of mine, "Manga Mania: How to Draw Japanese Comics:" reached the number one art book in the country, according to Bookscan.
I've also been a cover story on the industry trade magazine, "Publisher's Weekly." And if you've read this far into my Bio, then I'm more impressed with you than you are with me!
Thank you so very much for letting me offer some inspiration to you in your art adventures.

There are a lot of good things in "Drawing Vampires" with very few drawbacks (and depending upon experience and outlook, there may be no drawbacks at all).
For those who are beginners (like me), this may be a tough climb as it appears to be geared toward those who have been drawing for a while. That said, author/artist Chris Hart has provided breakdowns for every finished drawing, providing step-by-step examples for us to use. He also provides helpful tips which will definitely aid in creating the correct facial structure and proper mood.
Additional sections are included, from traditional vampires and bloodthirsty females to the author’s take on modern bloodsuckers. For added fun, there are chapters on other monsters as well as vampire slayers.
Of course, budding artists will only receive training in the Chris Hart style, which is geared toward a horror cartoon/comic book technique. If that is what you are looking for, this book will be a great jumping off point. Four stars.

Started looking up the books I either read or breezed through. This was one of them. Back when I drew a lot and was getting into anime. Same with vampires. Fun to draw.
