    Good book to learn drawing

    This is a fun and easy book to learn to draw. I would recommend it for anyone wanting to learn step by step. Good illustrations and some humor to make it fun.

  • Fantastic

    I love this book. It's the first drawing book I've seen that's actually helped me draw better and understand what I am doing. It's definitely not one that starts off with, "look at this picture and draw it" it gives information. I recommend it.

  • Yes you can!

    This book is a keeper. Loaded with tools usable in all drawing and into painting. Shading, perspective, foreshortening, 3D, size & position - more.

    The book was fairly damaged, but it matched the condition, so I can't really complain. I wish they'd had pictures of this actual specific book, but it's usable.
