Inspiring and stimulating look at how-to's of drawing

Drawing should be taught everywhere, says Camp, not just in art schools. As a word crafter I prefer to use words, but will admit there are times when a drawing can communicate more accurately and faster than a paragraph.Camp encourages copying, as instructors have for centuries. There's lots to copy in this book. He discusses media and technique but only touches lightly on perspective and control of 3-dimension. A rank beginner might get discouraged in a hurry but with persistance and determination s/he should be able to see it through. Someone with a little training or a natural eye would enjoy and profit from the instructions here.
