unique approach to drawing

Mr. Ames clearly takes a different approach to teaching drawing. He provides step-by-step sketches so a piece can be seen from the first few lines up to its completion. He totally avoids explaining any art technique, vocabulary, supplies, etc.I like his approach very much, although it may be more helpful to break up the steps a little more in the more complex drawings. A beginner would also need to purchase other books (which he recommends) in order to learn drawing basics such as shading, perspective, etc.

Great step-by-step

This book is a great drawing book to follow. I don't have any real artistic ability and found I was able to follow the steps easily. Each step had enough to not be over whelming, but help lead you. My 9 year old is also enjoying. And since it has a little of everything (animals, still lifes, automobiles, people), there are lots of great choices.

This book is a great step- by- step guide for all ages!

This book is the best drawing book I have ever read ( Well, I didnt really read it ! ). I have looked over this book a few times. Whenever I am doing a drawing project, I just look in this book and it practically gives me whatever I am looking for! I recommend people of all ages should give this book a try.
