How to Draw The Lorax

Hello, all.  Did you know that today, March 2nd, is Dr. Seuss's birthday?  Well, it is.  Theodor Seuss Geisel was born on this day in 1904.  I remember having a copy of How the Grinch Stole Christmas! and of course, watching the animated TV version, but I never really got into the whole Dr. Seuss thing as a kid.  However, I actually own several copies of original PM daily newspaper issues in which his WWII political cartoons appear.   You can read more about his war-related art in the book Dr. Seuss Goes to War.  Thinking about going to see The Lorax movie?  Check out this scathing review over at io9.com first.

In the spirit of Dr. Seuss and art instruction, here is the video I found on MLive.com, a Michigan news website that stresses the fundamentals of starting off with accurate geometrical shapes before delving into details (I approve!). Enjoy.
