Customer Reviews

"Good" Condition is used, but still a good deal

This isn't a How To Draw book. It's a book with blank spaces and prompts to fill them with. That's exactly what I wanted, and I couldn't pass up the good price. However, I got what I paid for because a previous owner already did about 20 prompts. I don't mind this as it will still take me years to fill the book even with it already started. The cover was also a tad beat up and required some tape to mend. Not a quality I'd gift to someone else, but as someone who wanted to get back into the habit of drawing again, this is exactly what I needed. The pages are also quite thin. You cannot color your drawings with marker and should test any outlining pens before committing in case they bleed through. But crayons or colored pencils go on without any problems.

Buyer Beware

642 Things to Draw This book contains NO sample drawings just blank half pages with a “title” of your drawing prompt. I purchased this for my students as a guide. Waste of money!!!

It is plain scratch book

Some of the part was already filled in but I thought it was fun to see. This book will help me start with drawing a day, I am just beginning to enjoy the process.

Disappointing

Half of it was drawn in. There is no kind of instruction at all-just a word in a square to tell the user what to draw.
