What is the best pen for drawing inks? What is contour drawing and how is it done? Aspiring artists get the answers to these and dozens more questions in this guidebook for aspiring artists. Page after page is packed with color images displaying preferred equipment and demonstrating proper technique. Here are professional tips on tools and materials (the best type of sketchbook, different pencil weights and what they’re used for), drawing techniques (conveying depth in line, using pastels effectively), and subjects (landscape features, measuring the proportions of a figure). “Do” and “Don’t” boxes supply simple advice on how to maintain professional standards, and finished drawings illustrate successful picture making in practice. This handy reference is like having unlimited access to a private art tutor.
