Anyone who can hold a pencil can learn to draw.

Celebrating the 30th anniversary of this informative and popular book, Bert Dodson shares his complete drawing system—fifty-five “keys” that you can use to render any subject with confidence, even if you’re a beginner.

These keys, along with dozens of practice exercises, will help you draw like an artist in no time.

You’ll learn how to:

• Restore, focus, map, and intensify
• Free your hand action, then learn to control it
• Convey the illusions of light, depth, and texture
• Stimulate your imagination through “creative play”
