Sketching as an art form emerged many centuries ago and has evolved from careless quick sketches to elaborate drawn works. This versatile and simple technique is still popular today - the materials for it are easy to take with you, so you can practice it not only at home or in the studio, but also on the street, on a trip or just in between.
Many ideas start with a simple sketch, it's the perfect way to bring an idea to life, an expressive and flexible means of thinking about thoughts, intentions and stories. The ability to express observations and thoughts accurately and succinctly with only paper and pencil at hand requires constant practice and attention. This book will help you learn how to create any sketch with ease. For easier assimilation of the material, 900 subjects are sketched in four key stages, each of which is clearly labeled and allows you to learn the construction of a sketch and practice. To develop the stages, it is crucial not to tackle one particular subject, but to work with many themes, from animals and nature to people, familiar objects and buildings. As you improve and gain confidence, the versatile skill of depicting different contours, surfaces and scales will allow you to bring ideas and images to life. The book aims to do just that, and here you'll find everything you need, from an overview of basic tools and techniques to ways to build up a large stock of skills. You'll master topics such as basic shapes, perspective and scale, light and shadow, line and stroke, and texture. And you'll even own a whole library of textures!
