I love Walter Foster Books! This one is another great addition to the series! It starts with what tools and materials you will need, how to hold your pencil, and tips on shading and values. It then has the reader drawing values as shapes, then depicting form, establishing your light source, creating depth, and attracting the eye. All of this and more and each with a step by step short exercises all in the first chapter!

Chapter two has more short exercises to build a dynamic composition then chapter three you put it all together for the realistic texture step by step exercises. ( Fur, feather, hair, leaves, glass, etc)
Chapter four has the combined skills of all the above in six more step by step exercises.
There is one or more photo with each instruction. The instructions are clear and easy to follow. This book is good for beginners or those needing just a little help.
I want to thank the publisher and NetGalley for letting me read this book.… (plus d'informations)
