5 out of 5 stars Very useful book for the fledgling artist   May 20, 2007
  15 out of 15 found this review helpful

I bought this book after struggling to draw birds. While it does not focus specifically on birds, it does cover many different mediums and teaches a few simple techniques that are invaluable to any artist, whether they paint or draw animals, landscapes or humans. While this book does not specifically deal with the subject of digital painting and drawing, many of the techniques within can be adapted to a digital format. I highly recommend this book to any artist, no matter their specialty. The lessons learned in this book have been invaluable, but may be difficult for a younger reader to understand.
