"A truly incredible book for emerging Artists and those who aspire to draw more. It's the perfect introduction of the basic drawing techniques presented in a traditional format."
"The book was recommended reading when I was a sixth former in the late 1950's. I loved it then and I am so very pleased to have it as part of my book collection now. It is a highly enjoyable reference book for learning how to use and apply perspective and how to use and apply tonal values when shading to emphasize form. Loomis is an inspirational tutor.
I was very disappointed at the length of time I had to wait, however, from the point of purchase to the time I actually took possession of the book. Despite the fact that the book came from the US, it took nearly six weeks before it arrived and a couple of e-mails to Albris expressing my concern."
"It's fun to "interact" with pencil. But still it's not as easy as it is in the book. I've tried, hard enough. But still, it's the practice you need, not the theory. However, i recommend this book for those who doesn't have time for a drawing class. But try as the book say. Don't just stare at the book. it won't help you out."
