Creative Drawing Techniques cover

Drawing is at the heart of all art and this inspiring book gives new ideas and techniques to help artists, whatever their ability, realize their visions. Based on years of teaching and artistic experience, Creative Drawing Techniques explains how to get the best out of different materials and express ideas, gain confidence and develop skills on paper. It emphasizes the importance of looking, analyzing and interpreting what we see. In doing so, it provides a rich and inspiring account of a basic but sophisticated need to make sense of the world around us. This book will be valued by everyone who wants to pick up a pencil and enjoy the creative art of drawing.

It is one of the most complete analyses to have been published and examines the topic not only as a foundation for other work, but also as a serious method of production in its own right. David Brammeld uses the full gamut of media, making this a comprehensive, enjoyable and satisfying guide to drawing in both theory and practice. -- Henry Malt - review The Artist * The Artist *
