504 _aDrawing is scarcely taught in schools and art classes any more, and yet many people long to be amateur artists. In fact, even those of us with little natural talent can learn to draw sufficiently well for our own amusement, and this attractive and engaging volume offers step by step practical exercises, together with lots of trade secrets and tips. The method taken is to set individual projects, each with its own special needs and challenges. For example, 'Evening on the River' teaches you how to create the time of day by use of tonal values, when you would choose light tones to predominate if you wanted a bright mood, darker ones for atmosphere and mystery. Other projects include figure drawing, portraiture and still lifes. With such topics and explanations, illustrations to reinforce them and many other tips and details of technique, this will be a perfect gift for any would-be artist.
