This Book Has What You REALLY Need To Know!

I'm fed up with all these drawing books out there that have tons upon Tons of text trying to tell you what to do. "Do this, DON'T do That", trying to tell you with WORDS how to DRAW! (Oxymoron?) And they always manage to leave out the few things you actually NEED to know! (Like paper type, medium, size, etc.) Usually written by people who either don't know how to draw in the first place, or don't know how to teach, or both. WHICH IS EXACTLY WHY THIS BOOK IS SO GREAT!! It has almost NO text at all! Just page after page of clearly reproduced drawings. And the minimal text is limited to exactly the information you want to see: what medium the drawings were done in, what type of paper, size, and purhaps the most useful: HOW MANY HOURS EACH DRAWING TOOK!! If you're good at studying good drawings but always wondering how long they should take and what kind of tools you should use, get this book! By the way, there are a whole bunch of minor mis-prints and typos in the book, but just ignore them and use your common sense and you'll be fine.

Very helpful when learning rendering skills

Very good book. Many styles and techniques of rendering and architectural drawing. Many pictures to trace and learn techniques. Very little text. Text is not necessary
