A comprehensive and superbly illustrated book on materials, techniques and approaches to drawing.
'Collins Artist’s Guide to Drawing' helps you to develop those skills that are essential to every artist – the ability to observe with a critical eye, then set down your observations on paper.

Whatever route you follow, 'Collins Artist’s Guide to Drawing' will supply the inspiration and technical know-how.
Contents include choosing, caring for and using the many and varied types of drawing materials – pencils, charcoal, pastels, pen and ink, paper and accessories. There is also advice on drawing and observation, figure drawing, sketching outdoors, composition and drawing aids.
