Learn to draw charming objects!
Filled with colorful illustrations and step-by-step explanations, How to Draw an Object
is the perfect introduction to the art of sketching. The delightful
illustrations are equal parts inspiration and tutorial and are sure to
have even the shyest artists reaching for a sketchbook.
The book
begins with simple explanations of drawing fundamentals―how to use
perspective and draw basic shapes like cubes, cylinders, and cones. From
there newly minted sketch artists will learn how to transform those
simple components into realistic drawings. A cylinder becomes a many
layered wedding cake festooned with frosting while a cone is transformed
into a martini, a butterfly net, or a sea shell. Soon readers will see
that even the most complicated drawing is really only a collection of
these basic shapes.
The book also includes a range of more
specific tips and tricks, such as how to mimic the drape of fabric when
drawing clothes or adding texture. Soizic Mouton's How to Draw an Object will give anyone who’s ever wanted to learn to draw the confidence to pick up a pencil and begin!
