Description
A Note From the Publisher
Featured Reviews
First of all thanks to NetGalley and the publishers for the digital copy of this book in exchange for an honest review.
This is all about how to get better at drawing and it starts with simple things like materials and lines and goes through shapes, shadings, drawing from pictures and life, proportions, perspective and ends with scenery.
I love the style of the book, it’s very organized, colorful, with an amazing design and a robot-narrator that explains everything creatively and easily, but still using technical terms (which are important).
I really like drawing and I already read some books to get better at it such the very similar book “21 draw illustrator’s guidebook” (though Drawing Made Easy is for more traditional artist (with pencil and eraser)), but this one is the best one I’ve read yet! Especially for the drawing humans and drawing from pictures and life parts.
At the beginning I admit I skimmed some pages since basic stuff doesn’t ever really change, but I found some interesting and useful tips in there as well!
One thing I’ve never really been good at is life drawing (probably because I’ve never really tried, but whatever) so I tried drawing a chair using Robbie Lee’s tips and this is the result! (I don’t think it’s perfect, but I think it’s good considering it’s my first time really drawing from life!) -> http://www.arvenig.it/blog/wp-content/uploads/2018/06/IMG_9329.png
Final Thoughts:
I think this is a perfect book for beginners, but also artists who never really studied theory.

A very practical book to learn topics such as the drawing process, perspective, drawing people, and drawing scenes in a very creative way. The author approaches different drawing methods like drawing from observation, drawing from imagination and others. I liked the comic style used as graphical method for the tutorials
