I think my main source of disappointment with this book was that it was not what I was expecting. Based on it's title, you'd expect a guided course of a new drawing each day (still life, portrait, blind contour, urban sketching, etc.), but it was really a series of projects to study different types of media, mixed media, etc. The author seemed to think that the reader should have a large variety of tools and media (the supplies list had well over a doze types of media, with many more listed as optional or suggested for use in the exercises) and not alternatives were ever given (ex: in many of the exercises, you could use everyday pens instead of fancy fountain pens and/or nibs). I can see the value of exploring different media types, but, as mentioned before, I was expecting different *drawing* ideas. All that said, there were some interesting ideas and some explorative exercises that I will try.
Beginning and experienced artists alike will find that this highly accessible book can boost motivation, strengthen discipline, or even jump-start creativity during a block.
"Through 46 daily exercises which make up a complete 6-week course, you will keep your artistic skills sharp and your imaginations fertile by doing One Drawing A Day. Each spread in the book features a beautiful drawing by one of 8 professional illustrators, with a description and comments by the illustrator as well as a companion exercise. Each exercise includes suggestions for various mediums or mixed-media solutions, advice on how to approach and execute the drawing, as well as professional tips. The book also includes exercises designed to spark new ideas and increase creativity"-- No se han encontrado descripciones de biblioteca. |

Note that this isn't intended for beginners looking for instruction, as there is very little of that--more like threads of ideas and directions to explore. The exercises also call for a variety of drawing tools/media, so there could be a substantial upfront cost to these suggestions, depending on how closely you want to follow them. ( )
