Pros realize more about your selfbasic drawing principlesgood prep for actual drawing class
Cons boring and lengthy at pointsinstructions unclearpointless information
Recommended it? Yes

The mere title of this book roots its interest in the scientifically minded, and like wise, those of this nature who buy it will mostly likely be bored by at least the 3rd chapter when it starts delving into more artistic matters that her right brain thinking forget to tell us left brainers how to...

One day last year, I visited the huge Barnes and Nobles store out on 18th street in Manhattan. By accident, I stumbled onto the bargain bin by the philosophy section.

Pros Can turn anyone into an artist.
Cons Have to buy a few extra supplies.
Recommended it? Yes

You can draw as well as many of your favorite artists. You think, "But my drawing is childlike and terrible." I thought the same thing before I read this book. My ability to draw was only one step above making stick figures on paper. Before I had even managed to finish the book, I could draw... Read full review »
