As this hands-on book demonstrates, anyone with a pencil, a sketchbook and the will to learn can achieve amazing drawings simply by focusing on the fundamentals.
Centered around a range of popular landscape subjects, including trees, seascapes and farmland, 20 practical drawing exercises lead artists through basic techniques while providing simple methods for mastering challenging landscape elements. Each exercise breaks down a finished drawing into six simple steps that give artists the opportunity to follow the drawing step-by-step from beginning to end.
Exercises feature a range of drawing media, including charcoal, chalk, pastel, colored pencil, pen and ink and watercolor. In addition, artists will find ample tips, suggestions and explanations to help them avoid mistakes and build their skills quickly.
