How to Draw a Corgi: A Creative Guide to Relaxation and Mindfulness
MARIETTA, GA – The new book Confessions of a Corgi Doodler begins with a single instruction: lose your predictions. Let the pen dance. What follows is not just a guide to drawing the charming, short legged dog, but a series of illustrated revelations on creativity itself. Published by Author’s Tranquility Press, this volume by Nancy Kondos uses the humble Corgi as a subject to demonstrate a liberating truth: that art is found not in perfect technique, but in the willingness to follow a line where it leads.
Each page pairs sparse, playful drawings with concise observations taken directly from the text. Kondos notes how a mouth drawn too low results not in an error, but in a humorless grin. She advises that the ink saved on short stilty legs can be used to emphasize the great breadth of chest. She warns against sharing your best pencils, for Corgis are known to be quite wood thirsty. The tone is practical, witty, and disarmingly profound.
The book systematically builds its case for creative freedom. It champions the stick figure, recommends props solely to add sauciness, and insists that doodling should never be taken seriously, for that would be quite gloomy. The Corgi, with its signature side long stares and ears that seem to reach new heights, emerges as the ideal pupil for this practice. Its form is remarkably adaptable, whether it is sitting small or standing unexpectedly tall. Naturally inquisitive, the Corgi is always curious, forever wondering whether you might be a sheep or about to go find one.
Confessions of a Corgi Doodler is structured around these tangible moments of creation. It asks where the front paws go when a Corgi burrows into blanket folds. It observes that some Corgis do not know when eating is over. It includes a mini-Corgi practice sheet where the pointed ears are drawn first. This is not abstract theory. It is a documented process, showing how attention to one specific, joyful subject can train the eye and quiet the mind.
The conclusion is earned through every sketch: simple lines are always the best. The book arrives as a tangible object for a digital age, a call to return to the basic pleasures of pen and paper. It makes no extravagant claims, only a quiet offer: pick up a pen, draw a Corgi, and see what else you might find along the way.
Confessions of a Corgi Doodler by Nancy Kondos is available now in hardback, paperback, and eBook on Amazon.
