Présentation de l'éditeur

From the bare essentials to complex, detail-filled pictures--that's where this complete drawing guide will take aspiring artists. These exercises go in gentle, easily-manageable steps, designed specifically to boost a beginner's confidence and minimize frustration during the learning process. Start out with only the most minimal equipment, and try basic first pencil strokes that provide a tension-free method for practicing shading. Move on to simple sketches of household items and exercises for achieving lighting effects. Practice perspective (carefully marked drawings with lines depicting the vanishing point show how), still lifes, and larger settings. Go outside to draw gardens filled with fruit and flowers, building exteriors, and eventually complete, beautiful landscapes.
