In the estimation of this wobbly-wristed artist, this book is one of the best I have seen. Lee Hammond will teach you to bring to life your own artistic talent. Lions and Tigers, oh my! You can learn to draw them. Then you are taught to add shaping and graphing as well as the effect of light by blending and shading. You will have lessons on drawing children and a whole bunch of different effects by using a variety of brands of colored and graphite pencils.

This book is for both beginners and accomplished amateurs. There is always something new to learn. It makes your fingers tingle to try out sketching for yourself.
