My name is Christopher Hart, and I am a professional artist and author of many popular, how-to-draw books.

This instructional pad is an exciting, new way to learn how to draw manga. It features the high-quality paper you've come to expect from Strathmore, as well as my cartooning techniques, which are easy to follow -  and fun! You'll learn how to draw many popular character types while developing a good foundation in basic drawing.

The first 4 pages of the pad feature the basics of cartooning, followed by 30 step-by-step lessons with space to draw each character. We've even included 8 blank sheets in the back of the pad for practice and creating your own characters.
