Review: Great book - Great book! Hard bound so it will stand up to use in our studio. Review: Good for intermediate draw-ers - I'm just getting into colored pencils, and this book has been really helpful. A few items: -This isn't for absolute beginners. It assumes quite a bit of drawing skill--it really is just the art of colored pencil. The drawing part is a little like "first draw a circle. Add small details...now you have a copy of the Mona Lisa!" - I haven't taken a drawing class since high school, and even then I went to a really broke school that couldn't begin to afford the right equipment for drawing/coloring well, so the guide to gear is mad helpful. Who knew that different paper was required for different stuff? Me. I didn't know. - You need the gray. Stop being cheap. Coloring lightly with black is not gray. Just give up and buy both warm and cool gray. The percentages you can fudge a little, but all your stuff will look kinda crispy and weird without gray. Believe me, I tried. In short, if you're at least at an 'intermediate' level of drawing ability and have some rough knowledge of color and shading and such, this will be really helpful to you and help you grow your skills considerably. Pictures are really bright and colorful, and explain the coloring part pretty well. ## Features - The Art of Colored Pencil Drawing - Discover techniques for painting stunning works of art in colored pencil - Provides easy-to-follow, step-by-step instructions for completing 27 projects - From layering and blending to burnishing, accomplished artists share their unique approaches and insights as they guide you from sketches to beautiful works of art - 144 pages in a softcover ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #324,559 in Arts, Crafts & Sewing ( See Top 100 in Arts, Crafts & Sewing ) #2,215 in Sketchbooks & Notebooks | | Customer Reviews | 4.5 out of 5 stars 135 Reviews | ## Images ![Walter Foster The Art of Colored Pencil Drawing Book - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/91LGQNZb+RL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great book *by P***A on May 8, 2024* Great book!
