Abstract:
The definitive one-stop guide to the basics of drawing and painting! Perfect for fledgling artists who are eager to learn but short on time, Learn to Draw and Paint introduces a broad range of basic art techniques. From pencil and charcoal sketching to oils, watercolors, and pastels, and from still life to portraits, readers will be drawing and painting like experts by the time they're finished! In the drawing section, readers will receive hands-on lessons on working with line, contour, and pattern; scale and depth drawing; perspective exercises, capturing movement; and more. The painting section covers basic color theory; materials and mediums; using color to create mood; and tips for painting landscapes, buildings, figures, and portraits. What's more, a variety of mediums and techniques are integrated through each lesson, giving new artists the opportunity to experiment and exercise their creative genius.
