A fair book

10 portrait demonstrations consisting of 6 to 10 steps each. All steps are accompanied by a 1/4 to 1 page color picture and a paragraph or two of text. Male, female, black, white, asian, and aged are included. Not detailed instruction, but snapshots along the road to completion, along with general information including what colors were used and what features were modified. Several pages on facial features, composition, lighting, and drawing... these include pictures too but in black and white. A good guideline and reference for those who could be helped by seeing how someone else progresses through a work.
