The third edition of a comprehensive drawing handbook, ideal for beginners, experienced artists and teachers of all levels. Illustrated, and with many suggestions for practical work, this books teaches you how to see, draw and develop technical skills, with a focus on learning how to observe our world as three-dimensional. Drawings from master draughtsmen, professional artists and students help illustrate common problems and teach you how to solve them. Five interviews with contemporary artists also show you the different ways they use drawing as part of their work. This book gives you a clear and systematic approach to all aspects of drawing and is ideal whether you are a beginner or already have considerable experience and want to re-examine your fundamental techniques. The book also offers teachers at all levels a ready-made instruction programme which progresses from basic drawing problems to the development of personal style.

The shipping was just superior

The shipping was just superior; not even one of the books was in contact with the shipping box -anywhere-, not even a corner or the bottom, so all the books arrived in perfect condition. The international shipping took around 2 weeks, so pretty great too.

Found a hard to get book…

Finding a hard to get book on Booksplease and with it not being an over inflated price was great. Ordering was really easy with updates on despatch. The book was packaged well and in great condition. I will certainly use them again.
