This book begins with learning how to observe- to see whats really there, not what you want to see. Observation is a skill thats learned & practiced, & one of the hallmarks of successful artists is that they know how to look at a subject with clear vision unfettered by preconceived notions or old habits. Using reference photos, diagrams, sketches & comparative examples, the author shows you first how to observe an object, & second how to translate that observation into an accurate rendering using graphite pencils, charcoal pencils & pen & ink. Review from The Artist October 2010 Claudia Nice has a characteristic realistic drawing style, which she has developed over time & has taught in workshops, demonstrations & seminars worldwide. She has written over 20 art instruction books & this book is a thoroughly written & well-illustrated manual, giving valuable advice about approaches & methods to help you hone your drawing skills. The book takes readers through all the basics, such as the importance of observation, mark-making, materials, building up shapes, comparing angles & proportions, perspective & tonal values, & through a number of demonstrations, Claudia explains various significant stumbling areas, such as how to draw symmetrical objects, using grids & avoiding or correcting mistakes.
