Description

Created as a supplement to The New Drawing on the Right Side of the Brain, this spiral-bound workbook offers 40 exercises that act as "guided practice" in drawing. The exercises are divided into the five basic skills of drawing, including "Perception of Edges," "Perception of Spaces," "Perception of Relationships," "Perception of Light and Shadows" and "Perception of the Gestalt." Each exercise includes a short section at the beginning which explains the purpose for the exercise, a list of materials needed, step-by-step instructions, helpful illustrations, and examples. Blank pages and large open spaces are included in the workbook for the student to complete the exercise, which keeps everything neatly in one book and makes it easy to look over your progress. A motivating forward, a list of all the materials needed for the workbook, and a glossary of drawing terms all get you started on the right foot. If you're working through The New Drawing on the Right Side of the Brain, this will give you plenty of extra practice! Jess
