Overview

Drawing: A Sketch and Textbook combines essential content from a basic drawing textbook with the ample blank space of a sketchbook so that students can immediately practice what they learn. Divided into three parts--the basics, elements of drawings, and the creative process--this innovative textbook/sketchbook aims to teach students how to draw by actively engaging them in practical projects.

The strength of Drawing: A Sketch and Textbook is the ability and encouragement to draw on and next to the examples. I adopted this text because I was interested in the innovative approach of combined text and drawing pages. --Bryan Park, Benedictine College I like the sketchbook format of Drawing: A Sketch and Textbook for a number of reasons, not the least of which is that the student is able to keep everything in one place. I also appreciate the short self-critique section at the end of the book. --G. David Brown, Winthrop University
