Drawing expert and sketchbook master Allison's guide is aimed at beginners. The author explains techniques in thoughtful yet easy-to-grasp language over the course of ten step-by-step drawing exercises and several short articles on areas of special focus, such as inspiration and observation. The exercises, which resemble a cooking recipe format, walk readers through creating their own tonal or color drawings of still lifes, landscapes, city scenes, interiors, and even a self-portrait. Drawings use both life and photos as source material. There is enough advice and encouragement here to get readers of beginning artistic skill level started drawing.</p>-- "Library Journal"<br>
