Humor often works by combining opposites, and this cartoon dragon is a great example. It plays on the 'goofy guy' cartoon archetype - the hapless, fool, he's lazy, good natured and harmless. Learn how to create a goofy cartoon dragon with this step by step tutorial by Shawn Encarnacion.

Learn how to sketch a running horse following this step by step tutorial by guest artist Dan Lewis. Dan is an amazingly talented artist and teacher, so it's a delight to be able to share his work with you. Dan uses traditional sketching techniques, working like a sculptor does 'from the outside, in', so if you're used to the photorealist outline method, you'll find this approach refreshingly different; by learning the principles, you can sketch a horse in any pose.
