Publisher description for Drawing solutions / Albany Wiseman. === What is the best pen for drawing inks? What is contour drawing and how is it done? What is an offset drawing? 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. You'll find professional tips on tools and materials (best type of sketchbook, different weights of pencils 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 you with simple advice on how to maintain professional standards, and finished drawings illustrate successful picture making in practice. Keep this handy reference within reach as you work. It's like having unlimited access to your own private art tutor. |
