This practical, drawing course is a sequel to the "Collins Complete Painting Course". The book is a structured teaching course and reference manual with lessons and easy-to-follow projects, from basic drawing exercises to more ambitious ones in which the reader is encouraged to explore their own creative potential. The course is divided into four main sections: foundation course - 7 project-based lessons to teach basic skills, with self-assessment critiques to help pinpoint faults; themes and treatments - 9 lessons to encourage one to develop one's own style; different approaches - 8 lessons exploring different ways of drawing, each featuring a key work by an old master; media and methods - step-by-step demonstrations of traditional and experimental techniques in all the drawing media.
