Description

Due to popular demand this best-selling book on drawing for the beginner is now in large format.

This book measures 8x10in, meaning the illustrations are larger, but the pocket-sized version of 5.5x8.5in is still available.Designed to help build confidence in drawing, this essential drawing guide begins at the beginning, not with an exercise on how to draw a potted plant.

Preliminary chapters explore the underlying causes of picture dyslexia with questionnaires into handedness and making visual judgments.Prescriptive matters such as vanishing points, measuring and plotting are confined to the final chapter.

The main body explores the art of seeing by promoting all fields of vision.

Special exercises include symmetrical drawing, upside-down drawing, abstract drawing, the weight of marks and much more.

The projects progress slowly, not abruptly, promoting success in learning.The A, B and C of drawing are touched upon throughout the book, helping to enhance the drawing experience before moving onto beginner's shading techniques such as working on a toned ground via chalk and pastel pencils.

The main body of the book however, requires the use of just a few basic drawing materials.With approximately 90 images and glossary.
