HERE'S WHAT STUDENTS SAY...

I must admit I was rather skeptical. "Anyone Can...Arts." Yeah, right! Well, am I ever eating crow now. The way Professor Pencil guided me through each step, it was like magic. I actually learned how to create a REAL PICTURE. I am now a true believer that YES! Anyone Can...Arts really does mean ANYONE CAN! I highly recommend this book to anyone who wants to learn to draw. Patti R.

I've taken courses previously in high school, California colleges and universities, yet I learned more by using your instructional book. Many of the exercises I was instructed to complete, that were not clearly explained in college courses, now make sense. The basics that I had always been seeking is now available to me and I intend to dedicate time to the pursuit of creating art, which I have always wanted to do. Trish A.

About the Author: In addition to his dedication to Anyone Can...Arts, Peter Kraus is also an eminent instructor in a Los Angeles Community College. Highly proficient with multi medias and styles, Peter’s aim is to bring out the expressive quality of each student. His unique teaching approach is remarkably successful with not only the artistically inclined, but also the artistically challenged, special needs children and adults, senior citizens and at-risk-youth. Proven correct time and again, his conviction that DRAWING SKILL CAN BE LEARNED is the heart of his ANYONE CAN...ARTS philosophy. "When we are growing up, we are taught that a small percentage of people have the ability to draw well, but I'm convinced the opposite is true," confides Peter. While studying psychology he questioned why some people have the talent to draw well and others don't. Something inside told him it was more than talent and his investigations led him to conclude people were not only not getting the right encouragement, but they were also getting instruction based on faulty premises. Schools teach that art comes from "intuition" and it simply flows from us. If a child isn't showing any artistic instincts from the get go, he never will. Peter doesn't deny the existence of artistically gifted individuals, but he believes drawing should be taught analytically as a skill. Instead of using the historically great artists as absolute models, our learning should start from the basics and evolve step-by-step at one's individual pace. This method gives the student a fair chance to discover he or she can actually draw well and do something with the skill. In fact, Peter prefers to look at drawing as functional and we can use it any way we want.
