Product Description
Anyone familiar with Freddie Levin's previous titles will recognize her warm and inviting colored pencil drawing style in 1"1-2-3 Draw Ocean Life. After introducing basic shapes and fish vocabulary, she includes whales and dolphins, a sea turtle, a squid an octopus, a crab and a shrimp, a starfish, a sea cucumber and a jellyfish, and much more. In addition to their subject-matter appeal, the simplicity of many of th colorful drawings makes success easy for younger, less experienced artists, while at the same time the more challenging subjects (an eel and shark twisting away from the viewer), subtle colors and shading will engage those with moe finely-honed skills. Whimsical, appealing drawings spring like magic from the page as young artists learn how to make charming creations from simple shapes. Each step is carefully shown and finished in full color. Fun examples and instructions all but guarantee success for budding cartoonists! Starting with simple shapes and the most basic materials, these books show young artists the essential skills involved in combining shapes to make characters and objects, simplifying and coloring them.

1-2-3 books are all great, July 12 2005

This review is from: 1-2-3 Draw Ocean Life (Paperback)
Having been introduced to the 1-2-3 books at our local library, I was excited to see the ocean life being released as the aquarium is one of our children's favorite places to visit. They love to draw the different types of sea creatures and the way that the illustrations are broken down, even very young children can create a fish that resembles the actual creature. I love all the 1-2-3 books and we use them regularly.

Practical Step-by-Step Guide, May 24 2006
By Rebecca Johnson "The Rebecca Review" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: 1-2-3 Draw Ocean Life (Paperback)
Through the use of basic shapes like circles, ovals and triangles, children can learn to draw a variety of creatures from the sea. You can start with easy sea shells and move on to the more complex shrimp and octopus.The Clown fish begins with a simple oval and the instructions take you through a instructional and visual journey. All the steps are sketched out making the drawings super fun and easy to copy. A pencil, eraser and colored pencils are all you need. You could also paint the final drawings.
The pictures include a cute Sea Horse, Sea Turtles, Crab, Shrimp, Coral Reef Fish, Dolphins, Whales, Anemones and many more...
1-2-3 Draw books are perfect for new artists learning about the basics of drawing and this book will provide hours of fun activities. Once you learn how to draw the sea creatures, you can then put them all in one picture with a coral reef.
