All artists should possess good drawing skills - and anyone can learn. Richard Box clearly illustrates how to master the basics using a range of simple techniques.

In this book he works with pencils, pastels and charcoal in a variety of ways - exploring composition, line, tone, texture and color with many step-by-step photographs and finished drawings. He demonstrates how easily they can portray different effects, teaching how to look at nature and how to interpret subjects in personal and individual ways. Whatever your skill level, you will be able to develop your own style with this informative, richly-illustrated book.
