This book is an excellent resource. It is very clear and the examples are really very helpful. If you are a beginner or an artist of years, there is very much to learn from this book. The text does offer some excercises, but it's greater strength is from the explanation of processes. The book doesn't play out as an analysis of art pieces, but describes the process of creating an expressive and cohesive work in pretty much any style of drawing. It tells you how to practice and what to look for in a subject and in your drawing. This was the textbook we used in my drawing classes and it has been an invaluable resource since then.

This book will help you find ideas and transfer them into your unique art.

While giving clear 'how to' instructions for those beginning drawing, this book treats drawing in a much broader way than simply the realistic rendering of the visual world. It's well written and illustrated with works by a good range of contemporary artists. As an art college lecturer I find this book very useful as a resource for both myself and my students.

This is probably my favorite drawing book. Some folks might prefer a more basic text that goes into linear perspective and stuff like that a bit more, but these days that can all be found online. In my opinion this is the best book for a college drawing class, or for a drawing teacher.

Good book, has great examples and the definitions are not that hard to understand. Ideal for any artist or reader that is interested in ART
