This richly illustrated manual covers everything from the basic tools and materials to the production of advanced effects. It presents dozens of exercises for beginning, intermediate, and advanced artists, ranging from the creation of hatching, tones, and stippling to dealing with the problems that can arise when adding texture, light, and shade.

An inspiring sourcebook for all skill levels, this guide helps artists discover a wide variety of subjects and ideas for their next sketch. More than 140 of the author's own drawings include partially finished details that illustrate how to achieve the desired visual effects. Stimulating topics include nostalgic scenes, old engravings, atmospheric effects, photographs, landscapes, and life itself.
