I am a stay at home mom of 4 boys and after 13 years of staying home, I thought that I would start refreshing my memory. I am a graduate of the Art Institute of Atlanta, Atlanta, Georgia and this book did more for me than my anatomy or fashion illustration classes ever did! I had always struggled with my faces and proportions and I bought Brenda's book and in minutes I had a face drawn, proportions correct and it didn't take me the hours or days that it used to and I have even used it with my Adobe Illustrator 10 software! I recommend this book for everyone, because I had always been taught that if you can master the human face or body, you can draw anything!

I became a fan of Brenda Hoddinott when I purchased "Drawing for Dummies." Her methods in art pedagogy are second to none for someone who, even though they've studied art for a long time, have yet to find out how to demystify the drawing process. Get this one, coupled with "Drawing for Dummies," and also go to her personal art education website, Fine Art Education.com, or http://www.finearteducation.com, and if you apply yourself to even a few of her lessons, you'll find yourself much more confident in yourself as an artist and a person. I tried "Drawing on the Right Side of the Brain" for years (well over one and one half decades), and it doesn't hold a candle to what Ms. Hoddinott has put out.
