Product Description
Relaunched in paperback, this book is the indispensable guide to the basics of sketching for the absolute beginner. Full of easy-to-follow exercises and step-by-step demonstrations, "You Can Paint Sketch" will give even the most hesitant of beginners the enthusiasm and confidence to start sketching in a variety of media. Jackie Simmonds takes the reader by the hand and starts by explaining how to make different marks using a variety of sketching media. Then, with easy step-by-step exercises, she demonstrates how to sketch the separate elements of a picture one by one. Here, you can learn how to sketch simple still life, figures and animals in pencil, charcoal, pastel, water-soluble pencil and conte. It won't be long before you can produce sketches to be proud of. Various sketching media covered include: graphite pencil and charcoal; conte and pastel pencils; watercolour soluble pencils and crayons; pen and ink; markers and felt-tips; and coloured pencils.
