From the best pens for drawing inks to instruction on contour drawing, this guidebook answers an aspiring artist's every question. Page after page is packed with color images and professional tips on: tools and materials (best sketchbook, different pencil weights and what they're used for); drawing techniques (conveying depth in line, using pastels); and subjects (landscape features, measuring a figure's proportions). "DO" and "DON'T" boxes supply simple advice on maintaining professional standards. Finished drawings illustrate successful picture making in practice.
