Complete Book of Drawing Projects Step by Step Kindle Edition

I have many drawing books, but since I have this one, I use it more than the others, specially with my art students, because I am an art teacher in high schools.

Good book

I couldn't see some of the illustrations on my kindle because they were too light. If you want a kindle version of this book then get "The Artist's Complete Book of Drawing Projects Step-by-Step" by the same author. It is nearly the same book but easier to see.

This book could be really good if it had better instruction. There are some great pictures to draw but not enough information for the student to draw them successfully.For instance; there is a drawing of a bicycle. It is pointed out in the instructions that the ellipses for the two wheels are different and that care should be taken to get them right. But there is absolutely zero instruction on just how to do this. Unfortunately, "Draw this carefully" is not instruction at all.Each of the pictures in the book starts with a laying in of the basic shapes. In the next step these are refined. Then a mid tone is applied to most of the picture. The final steps are to deepen these tones.It is possible to produce some pleasing drawings with this book but I don't think the aspiring artist will learn a whole lot simply because the author doesn't offer a lot of advice.

This is not a book for a neophyte. While I think this is great for a person with a tad bit of experience, this makes drawing appear more complicated than it really is. It did not really teach me in a way that would hold to memory. I was just copying what I saw. It probably works for others...just not for me.

USED BOOK SOLD AS NEW, ALSO BOOK COULDN'T TEACH ANYONE HOW TO DRAW.

I had trouble seeing pictures on the kindle. Also the drawing instructions we're kinda basic and repeative..

Cant see pictures
