If I had only bought this one book in the series, I’d probably have been pleased with it. However, I have bought three. I bought them for my Mum, as a gift, as she has developed an interest in drawing in her later years, and I thought she’d like some drawing guides.
The issue with this book series is that they have many duplicates. I’ve shown just a few of them in some photographs, but there are more. It’s disappointing as I’m now giving my Mum three books that contain a lot of the same things inside.
On top of that, I find a few of the guides a little strange. One example shows 12 steps to draw a basic face. The first 11 steps focus on proportion, shape and features, and then step 12 shows a drastically different result from step 11, with the instruction ‘Add hair and shade’. I appreciate that it is intended as a basic face, but then, why include step 12? It just seems odd - either keep it basic, or add more steps between 11 and 12, so the student can reach the results in step 12.
