Customer Reviews

It has it's good sides...

This book is invaluable to me. My art teacher had a photocopy version of it that I've gone to again and again. I finally found myself a copy and happily shelled out 85$ for it. The reason I found this book far more valuable than the Wiseman book is probably because I'm a student. This book has more pictures of his drawings, studies, and cartoons than any other I've seen. As well, it has a more thorough description of his working method than any other. I dont mind the black and white nature of most of the book, as most of the book is drawings and sketches, compositional studies and beautiful tracings. Until the catalog that the ArtRenewelCenter is releasing, (and shamelessly, severely overcharging for, imo) I consider this book to be the best on Boug available. Though, this is the perspective of a student, and it colored by my love of technique and drawing.
