Synopsis
A complete course for the can't-wait-to-get-started beginner!
Got the urge to draw? What are you waiting for?! Getting started is as easy as 1-2-3 with Grant Fuller's Start Sketching & Drawing Now! Packed full of easy and fun techniques, readers will learn to create accurate and expressive likenesses of people, animals, landscapes, and objects. Suddenly rendering even something as mundane as an electrical plug will become an adventure in seeing—and as you'll discover, learning how to really see your subject is half the battle.
- A progressive series of lessons range from proven exercises for developing hand-eye coordination, expressive line work and keen powers of observation, to creating the illusion of depth and dimension, realistic textures, reflections and more
- 30 step-by-step demonstrations cover an exciting range of subjects, including still lifes, landscapes, architecture, animals and people
- Graphite pencil is the featured medium, but charcoal, pen & ink, colored pencils and pastels are also explored
