  This is a practical drawing course which encourages readers to draw with confidence by developing their own ideas and individual styles. The book aims to demystify the learning process, making it an enjoyable experience. The book is designed for both beginners and those who wish to broaden their horizons, or to refresh their work with new approaches. The opening chapters teach the basic technique for using tone, line and texture. These early chapters feature accessible and easy subject matter whereas later chapters gradually progress to more difficult topics such as composition, light and form. Projects are at the end of each chapter and hints and tips are given throughout, so that learning is progressive and fun. In addition to the author's own drawings, the book features artists, to illustrate different methods, styles and approaches. The author is an experienced teacher of art and has written and illustrated many children's books. She is a regular contributor to the Artist's and Illustrator's Magazine .
