What a good drawing book is all about: clear step by step explanations, beautifully rendered illustrations, and simple clear explanations, plus a little extra fun at the end! Outstanding!
Fascinating to learn about drawing history and technique. Definitely helped my art : )
A very good book about shading the head. Perhaps not for the very beginner, but if you have a little background very clear and helpful. My high school students find it helpful as well.
This book is amazing! He explains things clearly, and he seems very knowledgeable.
