One of the most enjoyable and inspiring technique books I've read. I've only just started the exercises but couldn't resist reading the whole book. Excellent! And I'm finding the simple but effecive exercises very helpful in overcoming procrastination!

good straight forward book

5.0 out of 5 stars Good to go from drawing to painting

Good little book with lots of ideas for crafts, card making, etc.
I teach art and this book got my attention to encourage drawing student to also try painting.
And I find starting with only black and white is a good idea.

There area projects that are kind of in between.
It's less difficult than using colors right away.

4.0 out of 5 stars Good book for beginners
