A Foundation Course in Drawing

Rate this book
The projects in this superb teaching guide not only offer enjoyable drawing exercises, but are also designed to instill good working methods to benefit artists at all levels. Readers are shown different ways to look at a subject by studying shape, form, space, light, texture, and movement as applied to figure drawing, still life, landscape, and abstract subjects. Rather than prescribing a single, absolute technique, the book presents drawing as an act that reflects the complexity of human experience in numerous ways. Peter Stanyer and Terry Rosenberg, painters who have exhibited their own work in numerous shows, are both dedicated teachers who conduct highly regarded art courses in London for students at all levels.

It was a very good selection of drawing exercises. Not too overwhelming and some requiring so little time to accomplish, some required as little as one minute time, there would be no excuse in trying them out.Highly recommend this book for anyone wanting to learn to draw, and/or strengthen their current abilities in the art of drawing.
