Drawing is one of the most basic ways to exercise your creativity. Whether you’re using a pencil, pen, crayon, or even your fingers, the skills you gain from the activity translate to a bevy of different media. Learning the fundamentals is simple to do, but like all art, they require a lot of practice to master. But once you do, you’ll have the ability create images you’re truly proud of.

    Not For Beginners; Contour Sketch Hard to See

    This book is supposed to be for beginners, but I don't truly think it is for several reasons. First, the author throws around sketching and other artistic terms without defining them, as if expecting that we all would know what they mean. Second, as the author moves from the contour sketch to a sketch of near-photographic quality, she appears to skip or gloss over key techniques that will help the would-be artist achieve a similar aim. The book had other problems as well. The photographs of the contour sketch—the initial sketch to place all the key elements of the face—show the sketch itself drawn so lightly that it is actually hard to see when reading the book. Of course, a real contour sketch should be light, but one meant to instruct actually needs to be seen! There is some text to this book as well, of course, but I found it to be awkwardly written and unclear in several places. If you are already a decent drawer or good sketcher, this book might provide you with some additional ideas to improve your art, but I do not think it is well suited for beginning artists.

    A very helpful short guide to learn the skill of sketching a portrait. I must say that I've been practicing some of these steps and they actually are helping. It's a quick book to start practicing.
