Description
Whether you feel you have little talent and you doubt you could ever learn, or you enjoy drawing but have not been able to get much beyond a childlike level, this book aims to give you the skill you have always wanted. If you are already drawing as a professional artist or artist-in-training, it aims to give you greater confidence in your ability and deepen your artistic perception.
This 20th-anniversary edition of Drawing on the Right Side of the Brain has been revised, with more than 50 per cent new material. It includes recent developments in brain research that relate to drawing, new insights on the use of drawing techniques in the corporate world, and educational instruction on self-expression through drawing. Additionally, it offers ways to step beyond black-and-white drawing into colour and provides detailed advice on applying the five basic skills of drawing to solve problems.
