King Arthur, Merlin, and all of Camelot's dashing, regal and romantic figures spring to life under the gifted hand of a master illustrator/cartoonist and inspiring teacher. Hart provides lucid instruction and rich examples for students to follow as they learn to draw the handsome men of medieval legend in shining armor, beautiful maidens in gorgeous gowns, funny and fierce dragons, and backgrounds of imposing castle settings. Step-by-step exercises present many versions of characters in a variety of poses. 170 illustrations.
Thanks for taking a look at my books, and this "Author Bio." I'm a competent tennis player, who also enjoys playing computer chess while I'm watching TV at night (Hey, it prevents me from channel-surfing). I'm keenly interested in M-theory, although i have become skeptical of it of late, despite Brian's Green's full-body gushing... I love being with my family, and even my extremely evil dog, a Welsh Springer Spaniel named "Rusty." Oh, yes, he truly is that evil.
As for my work, I'm the author of many How-To-Draw books, published by Watson-Guptill,the art imprint of Random House. Thanks to a lot of the wonderful readers (and you know who you are!), I have sold over 3 million copies domestically, which have been translated into 20 languages worldwide.
I'm fortunate to also have had 26 of the Best-Selling art books in the country, according to Bookscan.(Bookscan is the publishing industry's rating system for books, which is owned by same company that does the Neislen TV ratings.)
I also have my own drawing show on the Comcast Network, called, "How To Draw Action Heroes With Chris Hart." It's on Comcast's "Activity TV." I hope you like my books, and find them a valuable adjunct to your own imagination.
