This is a very nice beginners guide to jump start your "inner artist". This book is very easy-to-follow for the very young or the very young at heart of any age.What I love about this book is it takes clear, diagrams that start with circles, ovals and other very basic shapes and shows how to sketch realistic images of the birds. All together there's 30 different birds covered. Including a rooster, penguin, horned owl, swan, toucan, duck, heron, flamingo, robin, chickadee and many more.These drawings look the best colored in with colored pencils or crayons, as they are very basic.Overall, a great little drawing guide for any wannabe artist who wants to get a good jump start. Then they can move on to more detailed guides.
I bought this book for my son. It has good basic step by step line drawings (4 for each bird) to draw a number of different birds with full color pictures to look at if you want to color in your birds. You draw your birds on a separate sheet of paper. This is a book for the young or beginning artist as the finished drawings are simple and not extremely detailed.
If you are new to drawing and want to learn how to draw birds, this is the book for you! It gives you step by step direction's on how to draw many different birds, ranging to small to large size birds. You will be glad that you bought the book and learned how to draw from the pages of this book. Enjoy!
I purchased the "How to Draw" books for our church library. The boys in the charter school at my church had been checking out the few we had in the library.Two "How to Draw" books went to a little boy who was confined at home after surgery. He has learning problems and had been checking the books we had during the school year. I'm sure he and other boys will be pleased when school starts again and they find we have more "How to Draw" books.
I purchased this book for my grandchildren, who are 8 and 13. They have always liked to draw and were quite good, but after purchasing this book, their pictures improved 100%. I would recommend this book for any age. I have purchased at least 9 of these types of books. I highly recommend them.
No text, just panels showing how to draw different birds. It's done in small enough increments to make it easy to learn to draw birds. I like this book a lot. I do wish there were some text to go with the drawings, but even without text, it's easy to follow.
Once you get tired of seeing poor renderings of things by kids, it's time to give them books like this. They learn some basics about drawing forms, and then, if you are lucky, your little "gifts" from them are better done.
All the children have enjoyed passing this book around! Aged 7-12, my kids found the instructions clear and easy to follow. I loved the variety of birds displayed in this book, and recommend it to anyone who enjoys drawing, or birds!
