Fun With A Pencil: How Everybody Can Easily Learn to Draw

The media could not be loaded.  This is a low grade printed duplicate copy of the book. In original book There are colored construction lines. In this every thing is in black and white.

I highly recommend this book . Content , printing , binding , size of printing , photos, is excellent . Anyone interested in sketching and is beginning to sketch , this book can prove to be a Guru . Enjoy sketching 👍

Thus is NOT the original book. It's a very bad monochrome photocopy which is flimsily bound.Do NOT buy this. It's a shame.

A must have book for every artist regardless of their level of expertise. I don’t know why this book got so low rating. The print quality is fantastic!

Good product

The book is in black and white, a copy. It is not original. Do not buy.

Just to reasure any prospective buyer. That the version priced at £29:99 IS THE HARDBACK COVER. as you probably know these Titan reprints are all facsimile copies of the origian loomis books, But I read a couple of reviews from the paper back version that sounded quite worrying about the pages being out of order and how only black was used to print instead of the dual Black and blue inks used in the originals.. (The blue lines showing the "Basic Forms").Well this 29:99 edition does have black and blue print and a very sturdy dark blue hardbound cover, (not the semi bendable kind either) the orange and black jacket with the (Mr Monopoly type guy) on the front is the dust jacket that surrounds it.I won't repeated in length what other reviewers have elequently expressed about the virtures of this great book.Just to say that like many others who were trying to learn how to start drawing. I bought many other guides, from various publishers and cellibrated teachers, such as barrington barber adrian hill and although all were of some help. I wish I'd discovered this book first, because you can get some fun and credible results right from the start and the book builds and grows on these as you turn every page.I'd Also recommend splashing the extra on the hardback version for simple practicle reasons, it's very helpfull if any book you are studying from opens to the page you wants and stays open comfortably.. unlike many tight bound paperback ones where you need a Stanley Vice or two 50 kilo weights on each page before you can let go and have it remain open. No such prob with the hardback.

This is by far the best books for learning anatomy in cartoon fashion and passing them off as believable people. Not to mention the ample amounts of easy to understand drawing exercises to practice. Helped me realise how the angles and positioning of faces work and has exceedingly enhanced my artistic skills

I first learnt how to draw with a PDF version of this book, if you wanted an actual copy you could pay up to 800 pounds on the internet because his estate would not allow prints so I was delighted to finally have a hardback copy. it met all my expectations and was a wonderful size and it's so much better than having to read it on a computer screen

Trying to get back into drawing after over 12yrs of quiting due to bad teachers so for me its like starting from scratch. Recommended by many for a reason. Its very easy to follow, clear & informative. Just need the free time now to practice.
