Description
This handy guide covers just about every drawing technique in both monochrome and colour. Simple instructions and clear examples make it easy to follow. Presenting each one individually allows you to absorb information quickly and without fuss.
David will explain different materials, such as hard and soft pastels, graphite sticks, ink and even quill pens. Alongside these are the ways of working - hatching, scumbling, blending and ways with pen & wash. Throughout, the instructions are concise and confined only to the point in hand - often they’re just captions to explain what to look for in an illustration that already contains all you need to know.
David is a master of what he does and he exploits each medium or technique to the full, making use of form, tone and colour in ways that show you not only how each one works, but also how it differs from all the others.
As a primer or a source of information to refer back to, this is an enjoyable and above all useful book.
