Teaching Myself and Being My Own Student!
As an adult who used to love art as a kid, I can’t express enough how thankful I am for How to Draw Cool Stuff: A Drawing Guide for Teachers and Students. This book has reignited my passion for drawing and has been an absolute blast to work through.The step-by-step guides make it easy for anyone, regardless of skill level, to follow along and create some truly amazing pieces. The book covers everything from basic shapes and shading techniques to more complex designs and patterns, and the results are nothing short of impressive.But what I love most about How to Draw Cool Stuff is how it encourages creativity and experimentation. Each section provides plenty of opportunities to personalize and add your own unique flair to each drawing. It’s a fantastic way to unwind and tap into your inner artist.Overall, I highly recommend How to Draw Cool Stuff for anyone looking to get back into drawing or for those who want to develop their skills further. It’s been an absolute joy to work through, and I can’t wait to see where my newfound creativity takes me next!

Fabulous for all ages!
I discovered this book when subbing for a middle school art teacher. Holmes wrote it specifically for teachers and students, but is easily used in a non-school environment. At that time, I was personally exploring drawing for relaxation at home. I paged through the book and saw that it would work well for me at home. And it sure did! My drawing skills improved incredibly! It helped me as a teacher too because I used the lessons when I had to teach every subject to my 6th graders, including art! I went on to buy a few more books in this series. I’m retired now, but I use them with my grandchildren.

Estaba buscando un libro para aprender a dibujar desde cero. Elegà éste porque está hecho por una profesora de dibujo; leà la introducción y la autora me cayó bien, como que conoce a la perfección su trabajo y tiene interés en que los alumnos progresen. Lo he recibido esta mañana y me he puesto enseguida a hacer los ejercicios. Decir que el libro es una pasada. Es bastante grueso, tiene mucho material. Cada capÃtulo tiene una pequeña introducción teórica y luego viene un ejercicio para poder practicar esa teorÃa en particular. Los dibujos de los ejercicios son bonitos y variados; producen sensación de logro desde el principio. Vamos, que estoy muy contenta. Seguiré el consejo de la autora de hacer cada uno de los ejercicios sin saltar ningún paso. El libro que yo he comprado está escrito en inglés; con un nivel medio se puede seguir perfectamente, pero para quien lo prefiera, también está editado en español.
