Yokai Bestiary presents detailed step-by-step drawing projects featuring ghosts, monsters, and demons from Japanese folklore.
 
Learn how to draw a bestiary of supernatural creatures from Japanese folklore, and discover their origins as you go.

Yokai is a Japanese term for mystical beings that encompasses a range of supernatural phenomena, including demons, monsters, ghosts, and shapeshifters. Sometimes cute, sometimes frightening, but always enchanting, the creatures are often at the center of popular anime and manga stories. In Yokai Bestiary, learn how to draw 35 types of yokai while learning the folklore behind them.

Created for artists of all skill levels, this step-by-step drawing book shows you how to block in major shapes, provide proper shading to give dimension and depth to your drawings, and draw small but culturally significant details. Among the yokai types, you’ll learn to draw:
 

Kitsune, fox demons with multiple tails
Kappa, reptile-like spirits with a turtle's shell on their backs
Tengu, monsters with bird-like characteristics
Kodama, tree spirits 
Nekomata, cats with two tails 
And many more! 


With both drawing instruction and Japanese mythology to engage your mind, Yokai Bestiary will transport you to a fantastical land of beasts and spirits.
