Product Description

Normally I don’t but into “how to draw” books. Drawing skill comes with practice, not by reading. I heard this was a good one so broke down and bought it (with a few others) they all collect dust on my shelf.

This is by far the best how-to book and series I’ve ever seen.
I HIGHLY and STRONGLY recommend this, it IS a must-have in your library collection.
This book contains pretty much all you need to know, works great as a master-basics book and is a great complement to any other books or training you might have or aspire to get.

This is my first Christopher Hart book and while I agree that
most of his books aren’t that good*, this one doesn’t deserve
a 1-star rating. Why? He probably wrote most of the texts but
most of the art work isn’t his. They’re from contributing
artists. Whether that is a good thing or a bad thing is up to
you. I do agree that some of his texts do not match the
art work. Without another book about anatomy, you could get
lost real fast.
If you’re a professional comic book artist or taking art in
college, then do not buy this book. You’re not its intended
target. While I agree that kids should learn art the right way,
the question is, “Is there really an author out there who can
teach the intricacies of surface anatomy and figure drawing to
kids without boring them?”
Am I disappointed with my purchase? No, I wasn’t. But I’m no
pro.
* I did scan some of his books where I bought this book and
I have to agree though that his work isn’t really awe-inspiring.

this book has a lot of instruction and ideas for what to draw is has a lot of instruction for the serious sketch artists. if you are looking for a book on anatomy this is a great buy.
