Readers will enjoy experimenting with and learning the rich range of drawing mediums and techniques presented in this thorough sourcebook. Basic skills such as blending, cross-hatching, and lifting out are demonstrated through clear exercises in pencil, charcoal, pastels, cont, pen and ink, and colored pencils. Subjects are specially chosen to show the artist how to handle line, tone, light, and perspective in studies of pebbles on a beach, reflections in water, shiny glassware, autumn leaves, ploughed fields, and richly textured stonework. Helpful information and trouble-shooting exercises on composition, shape, volume, shadows, and other essentials are also included.

Michael Woods, the author of seven previous art instruction books, is a painter whose work has been exhibited widely in his native England.
