Drawing for Dummies (For Dummies)

"I like drawing myself, but I needed a little help in some areas of drawing. I came across this book in waterstones and bought it (sorry amazon!), as it looked very informative. How right I was.

It is great for taking each project step by step, storing it in a portofolio (excuse my spelling) and looking back and reflecting on it. I have enjoyed this book, and I doubt I will ever be 'finished' with it.

Drawing for dummies is an unusual book in the respect that it lets you start drawing straight away,not scribble but actual drawings, I was that impressed I purchased another one to give to my grandson. It goes from easy to not so easy all in easy to read print and all with good illustrations. This book I would recommend for any one that is trying their artist skills out, the book does not give an age indeed it caters for all ages as she says you are never too old or young to pick up a pencil. Highly recommended."

"If you want to draw but think you have to be gifted with an artists eye or natural ability, buy this book and discover that everyone has the skills to become a gifted artist. I was amazed at how easy it was to start putting pencil to paper and produce something I wished to show to others.
I was so pleased with my first drawings that I went out and bought a hardback sketchpad so that I can keep a pictorial diary of my improving skills."
