All drawing is based on simple beginnings and the construction of lines and shapes. Michael Terry shows how easy it is to draw a great selection of leprechauns in different poses and situations. Using initial basic geometric shapes, he uses two contrasting colours to build up each stage, finishing with a complete image and a full colour version of the leprechaun for artists who require colour references.

28 of these mischievous little folk are included, some with pots of gold, some shoemaking, others resting quietly, or going about their daily business. Even absolute beginners will be able to create great drawings following these illustrations.
