This comprehensive guide to simple, effective drawing techniques encourages the reader to focus on expression and style to achieve artistic 'truth'. Rather than copying every element of a subject, the reader is encouraged to develop his or her own way of seeing subjects to produce an individual, expressive style of drawing. While offering practical advice on proportion, perspective, light sources, mark making and other matters, authors Barrington and Barber and Duncan Smith seek to inspire readers' confidence in their own abilities as an artist.
