The artist Norman Thelwell (1923-2004) was famous for his much-loved cartoons depicting stubborn, plump ponies and their determined young riders. In this book, originally published in 1982, he gives expert advice on how to draw ponies and horses of all temperaments, shapes and sizes. He focuses on topics including the anatomy of horses, and how they move and stand. Writing in an entertaining style and featuring many of his wonderful illustrations, Thelwell offers clear guidance, top tips and encouragement to aspiring artists. He shares his skill, knowledge and experience in a down-to-earth way and provides a fascinating insight into his work.

In 1952, Norman Thelwell (1923-2004) penned his first cartoon for the satirical British magazine Punch, renowned internationally for its wit, irreverence, and for publishing the world's best comic writers and poets. This led to a relationship that lasted for 25 years and over 1,000 cartoons, including 60 front covers. Thelwell was a master of sharp social comment and sheer zany humour, and his 34 books have sold millions of copies worldwide and have been translated into numerous languages (thelwell.org.uk).
