Welcome To Anthro Project Educate!
The DeviantART community is filled with passionate art enthusiasts from around the world. With it comes one of the many art forms represented by those very enthusiasts.

To expand your horizon and inspiration and to b
PE: Anthro - Genre, Anthro vs Furry and AdviceAnthro Art - Different Genres - Anthro vs Furry
The unique thing about Anthro art is that it can take different shapes, sizes, and forms. The only limitation is your imagination. One of the most common misconceptions for Anthro art is that people generally associate it with "Furry" art because most of Anthro art is enveloped around furry animals that look like humans ( Below the very talented ^Katmomma has written up a quick guide to the differences between "Furry" and "Anthro"). Lions, Tigers, Bears and WereWolves. But contrary to popular belief, Anthro art can range from animals to toasters that doesn't involve fur at all! In my previous post about Anthro art, I explained what Anthropomorphic was. Anthro art is based on the very definition below:
Anthropomorphic: Ascribing human form or attributes to a being or thing not human, especially to a deity.
There is no "right" or "wrong" way to draw or portray Anthro art because like fantasy art, they do
PE: Anthro Artists - Exposure In the Real WorldDeviantART is a host of a wide variety of resources. One of those resources is being able to showcase your work to a huge audience and with that comes the hope and chance to get noticed for things outside of DeviantART. For example like art shows, books, comics etc. This that have been published in the real world.
In this article we will be exposing some Anthro artists here on DeviantART who have become published or are working on being published. To give them a chance in the spotlight and showcase their hard work and dedication to what they love.
*NOTE* if you are a published or soon to be published Anthro artists, please note me or post on this article so I can add you to this list!
So here we go!

PE: Anthro Art TutorialsOn today's Project Educate Article on Anthro, I'll be highlighting some great tutorials on how to draw Anthro. Sense there is no right or wrong as far as drawing Anthro, because lets face it, we don't see a werewolf running around to reference from, your imagination is the limit. However, there are some simply guidelines that you can take home with you and practice to better your creativity.
Anatomy
This is probably one of the most challenging things for people to adhere to. Anatomy in itself is a little challenging but once you get it, the sky's the limit as far as drawing Anthropomorphic animals, beings and things!
So below are a few pointers!
1. The Ultimate Anthro Tutorial - This tutorial was created for all beginners and Art enthusiasts around the world. It has such detail and walks you through all the basics before getting to the next level where you feel comfortable drawing anatomy for an Anthro character.
