The key to creating a powerful drawing is to start with the right concept!<br /><br />In this book, sketching and painting expert Masao Yamada provides dozens of examples showing you how to establish accurate guidelines and proportions for your initial pencil sketches--setting your drawings up to succeed right from the start.

- Locate the horizon line, dividing land and sky
- Break down complicated scenes into simple component shapes
- Create the right relationship between foreground and background
