Mark Kistler has done it again! As an avid reader of his past writings, I was pleased to see he has raised the bar on drawing instruction yet another notch. He continues to amaze in his newest book! He imparts his drawing lessons in an extremely entertaining and fun manner. I am always amazed at how he so adeptly reaches an audience that spans so many generations. My eighty-year old grandfather enjoyed his latest book as much as my ten-year old daughter. I was especially delighted to see that a companion workbook was offered and I must say it lived up to my highest expectations! Thank you Mark Kistler!!!

Using this book as a teaching tool in the classroom, the students get the confidence they need. Mark explains how to draw in easy to follow steps using basic shapes that create an exciting drawing. Students, parents and teachers are all amazed with the results.

My 8 year old son is quite the artist. He can draw what he sees. He was given this book by my mother and ignored it for quite awhile.....so one hot boring summer day while cleaning his room I found it and started messing around.....I am so amazed at what I have put on paper. I am a 35 year old woman who can't draw more than a stick figure....well not anymore!!! Not only does my refrigerator door have my childrens art work -- IT HAS MINE!!!! THANK YOU MARK! Did not know what I was missing.

I spend about a a half hour with this book every day - or a couple hours every other day. It's great for building confidence and practice.

Ever feel that books like "Drawing on the right side of the brain" were somehow sterile and lifeless? This book is chock full of a million creative drawings that can be done with a little patience.

I am a professional artist and occasional art teacher but Mark Kistler products will teach my grandchildren better than I could. He is fun and has a gift for getting kids excited about art.

When it comes to teaching kids (of all ages) how to draw in 3-D, Mark Kistler is the best. His drawings always excite and amuse my students, and his instructional framework is unbeatable. I've been teaching art for 33 years, and I've come back to Kistler's texts again and again. Thank you, Mark.

Received book within a week and excellent step by step instructions in drawing in the book. Thanks for helping improve my drawing skill.

Very neat book, but not what exactly I was looking for. I wanted more objects or animals and this book does show letters of the alphabet in 3-D and cartoon characters. Little disappointed however the book itself was in great shape.

I am an art teacher and from time to time use these books to teach students step-by-step drawing when we have only 15-20 minutes to work. The pictures are so funny and the kids love them. Mark is a very imaginative guy. Please visit his web site [...]. I take 4th graders to the computer lab for a class period to draw from his web site.

I have never heard of Mark Kistler or have I ever seen his show. I picked this up because I already draw well, but wanted to try something fun. I couldn't have picked a better book. First of all you do NOT need the workbook. I don't have it, and have no problem using this book, though if you are getting it for kids it might be more fun for them. The whole point is, this book is fun at any age. It doesn't matter if you have an art background or have never picked up a pencil. This book is a great way to get inspired. With all the wonderful cartoons, you will enjoy and draw out of it for a long time. I really recommend this.
