The Encyclopedia of Drawing Techniques by Hazel Harrison

The Encyclopedia of Drawing Techniques by Hazel Harrison

Detailed photographic sequences explore pencil, charcoal, pen and technical pen techniques, including shading, building up, blending, hatching, highlighting, stippling and more. Coloured pencils, chalks, pastels, and pen and ink are also covered with inspirational pictures across a full range of subject matter, including landscapes, buildings, figures, animals, flowers and still life. Techniques are discussed in detail including layering, feathering, burnishing, linear marks and pointillism. The use of paint and brushes is less obvious in a book on drawing, but there are some techniques in which the brush is used to create a line, or to infill a linear shape. These techniques are discussed as well with Gallery examples shown throughout to act as inspiration for the practising artist. Sequences on mixed media, keeping a sketchbook and digital drawing are included too, making this book an invaluable addition to any artists book shelves.

This title attempts to cover as many drawing techniques as possibleThe book is split into four sections: monochrome media, colour media, mixed media and digital drawing. Readers won't learn advanced techniques from the digital section, but if you want to learn to use a new medium, this explains the basics well.
