This book is loaded with fun lessons and projects from popular instructor Lee Hammond on drawing brightly colored nature subjects realistically--more easily than you ever thought possible! The book includes basic colored-pencil drawing instruction on materials, using a grid to transfer a preliminary drawing from a photo, values, color, shadows, blending, and other key lessons for beginners. Twenty+ demonstrations show how to draw subjects from three different viewpoints, and how to draw detail from far away to super close. It includes fruit, flowers, leaves, butterflies, and birds.
