  • Awesome for beginners

    Highly recommend this book for beginner. I wanted to try chalk portrait drawings and with this book I was able to have okay looking results. I added photos...I've never drawn portraits before, the book is really step by step. These pics are not great, but with practice I can see them getting better. If interested in portrait drawing this is a for sure purchase if you can find one...I think it's from the 1980's
