Learn to Draw in 5 Weeks: A Beginner's Workbook for All Ages Paperback – July 18, 2023

this workbook is extremely good for newer artists. It introduces you to the art fundamentals in a very easy way so you can build on top of it. It also helps you with learning warmups that really help with making better lines.

This book arrived packaged well and in excellent condition. The instructions are clear and detailed even though I still can't draw well, but that is my own fault not the book's. I would recommend this purchase for someone wanting to learn the basics of drawing and techniques.

The only way the “5 week” claim would be accurate is if you did little else but practice, similar to being in art school. However the directions and lessons are clear and practice techniques offer plenty of good advice

The instruction uses simple practice techniques to allow you to build the skills to draw comfortably. Very helpful for me.

Thanks for the free/gifted book, @penguinrandomhouseThis is an ideal book for anyone of any age who wants to learn to draw. The author provides clear instructions with illustrations. There are also QR codes that link to videos providing demonstrations. The book is organized into five weekly lessons. A seven-day practice schedule is provided for each week. The first week covers recommended materials, how to hold a pen, and practicing fine motor skills. Over the next four weeks lessons cover dimension, shapes, shadows, and craft. Following the author’s directions is like sitting with a patient and encouraging instructor. Always wanted to draw? This book provides a nonintimidating way to learn.

Thank you NetGalley and Zeitgeist and Penguin Random House for the eARC!This book really dives into the detailed aspects of drawing. Great for those who want to learn to flesh out their sketching. Most of the techniques can be applied to digital drawing platforms as well.

Not terrible, encouraging text but it doesn't really take the time to fully explain things well, there's no real build, it just sort of expects you to be able to follow along and this really really shows with the kindle edition since you can't use the work spaces in the book itself. It's not as step by step as I really need, but i think it would work well as a book for an art class with a good teacher there to offer tips and more specific instruction.

Purchased for our son for Christmas. He's working on improving his art skills, and this book is helping! He's 11 years old.
