- This is my absolute favorite drawing book. Most how-to books for drawing don't seem to have enough info, or they have too much useless info.
They're either loaded with drawings without much text or progression, or have way too much text and it's difficult to find what you're seeking.
This book makes it really easy to find what you're looking for, and is full of useful information and resources.
I have owned this since I was 14 and am now 24. I bought this for my 11y/o niece last X Mas and it's really helped her improve her skills.
Like to an extent that is pretty shocking.
She brought me a picture the other day and said she's been using the book and really likes it. ) - This is probably "the" book for the aspiring pencil artist.

- I have written other reviews on Lee Hammond (instructional) drawing books. My 11-year-old daughter can pick up a Lee Hammond book and within an hour is drawing amazing pictures. Lee Hammond books are probably not for young beginning drawers; however, my 11-year-old has no problem following the instructions and creating gorgeous drawings. I started a binder with protective pages for my daughter to place her drawings in. If you have a serious artist or a budding artist who just needs some extra instruction, Lee Hammond books are the way to go.
- I love to draw and I love anything written and drawn by this wonderful artist. Lee Hammond's books are great for beginners as well as the polished artist. Her instructions and techniques are easy to understand and follow. Although I am a great artist, I like to use her books to help me bring out the best work of art that I can create. I want to be just like her when I grow up.
- My 9 year old is interested in learning to draw more realistically. We have been having a great time with this book. It teaches a lot about shading techniques; I'd never used a tortillon before, but now see how useful a tool it is. Daughter has done some very nice drawings copied from the book, and it has helped her see how shading can make an object stand out from the page.
- I highly recommend this book to beginner artists as well as the experienced artist. This author makes it very easy to understand for the beginner. But for the experienced artist like myself this book has allowed me to go back to refine my techniques and take my skill level up another notch or two and I see lots of improvement in my work. I love this book.
- This was a gift for my son who very much loves to draw, has natural artistic talent. He has referenced this book repeatedly as he continues to develop his skills
- Very good book, I ordered this with a few others and I am very happy with it.
