What to draw and how to draw it  Pl.16 by Edwin George Lutz, 1913

Edwin George Lutz wasn't just teaching people how to sketch bunnies and birds in this 1913 instructional plate; he was secretly training the next generation of animation legends. This page breaks down the 'Rabbit Running' and a 'Bob-white' bird into simple, digestible steps, starting with a single curved line and building up to a fully detailed creature. It looks like a simple drawing exercise, but this specific book, *What to Draw and How to Draw It*, was a foundational text for a young Walt Disney, who checked it out from his library to learn the secrets of movement and character design.
