Average Rating: Rating: - A must have... ...for beginners. Betty Edwards does not claim that you will become a professional artist in 5 days, however she does promise results as long you have the patience and time to do her exercises. I have also met many an art teacher who highly recommend this book to students who are interested in learning how to draw. In addition, Edwards includes chapters explaining how she came about this teaching technique, that is used in many schools today, as well as the scientific reasoning behind a person's ability to draw. Her approach to teaching is what gave me the ability and confidence to become a Fine Arts major in college. I have nothing but praise for this book and it's author. Rating: - Great Book If you just want to get started drawing cartoons or copying other peoples drawings with no fuss this is not the best book to start with. I am about 3/4 of the way through it now. I really like this book alot and it think it is a great book but probably best used after some initial level of confidence is aquired. Also the book provides a lot of thoery that is probably too advanced for preteens so I wouldn't use it for teaching children unless your going to be helping them along the way and explaining it to them. The main thing is that you might not get sudden explosive results like a lot of people say, I could already draw realistic noses and eyes and such before I started reading it by using well defined methods but I am learning much from this book, I really think if you want to do this book you should bother to read the thoery and try to participate in the described mindset. I think it's a great book, I have been practicing with it and "Keys to drawing" side by side and both are similar however but Keys is more of a how to book where Right brain includes more thoery and a little less action. The drawing excerizes in both books can take a considerable amount of time if you want to finish the books quickly(ie doing several excersizes a day) so it's probably best to start when you'll have some free time. Rating: - Great book for non-artists I am not an artist, and would not normally presume to comment on an art instruction book. However, my personal experience is that after reading this book, I am now able to sketch for the first time in my life. I have always wanted to be able to draw, and for various reasons had never succeeded. This book presented sketching in a way I had never encountered, and it was effective for me. The only negative I can find with this book is that it is a little repetitive...I think the real benefit is in looking at drawing in a new way, which you learn in the first couple of chapters. I did not find it necessary to read the entire book to see the positive results.
