4 stars, InterestingDraw Like an Artist: 100 Buildings and Architectural Formsby David DrazilThis is a how-to drawing book。 It shows handy hints and helpful tips to make your drawings look more realistic。 I gave it 4 stars because it was only available on the NetGalley Shelf book reader。 It would have been nice if it were available in Adobe Digital Form, so I could actually try the techniques out。 I'm not an artist, but I'm willing to try and willing to learn。I received a complimentary copy of # 4 stars, InterestingDraw Like an Artist: 100 Buildings and Architectural Formsby David DrazilThis is a how-to drawing book。 It shows handy hints and helpful tips to make your drawings look more realistic。 I gave it 4 stars because it was only available on the NetGalley Shelf book reader。 It would have been nice if it were available in Adobe Digital Form, so I could actually try the techniques out。 I'm not an artist, but I'm willing to try and willing to learn。I received a complimentary copy of #DrawLikeanArtist100BuildingsandArchitecturalForms from #netgalley I was under no obligation to post a review。 。。。more
