This cute little book has nice and easy instructions on how to draw many different objects。 It utilises various basic shapes in order to base the final product off。 It has a range of chapters ranging from house hold items to sporting objects。 I was unable to view all the pages in this book, unsure if this was intentional。 Overall nice simplistic instructions for a beginner artist。 Each page also has a little colour scheme on how to colour each object which I thought was a nice touch。 Beautifully This cute little book has nice and easy instructions on how to draw many different objects。 It utilises various basic shapes in order to base the final product off。 It has a range of chapters ranging from house hold items to sporting objects。 I was unable to view all the pages in this book, unsure if this was intentional。 Overall nice simplistic instructions for a beginner artist。 Each page also has a little colour scheme on how to colour each object which I thought was a nice touch。 Beautifully presented illustrations through this book。 Thanks to the publisher and netgalley for the ARC in return for an honest review。 。。。more

Now that we’re all mostly staying at home, this book is very timely for anyone who wants to start drawing。 What better to put on our sketchbooks or journals than the things right before our eyes in our abode。I’m really liking this series as there are 10 steps given for each object, so pretty detailed with nothing skipped or rushed through。 The drawings are nice too。 Useful too are the colour suggestions with the completed sketch。Great for a beginner or intermediate artist。

I would like to thank netgalley for the Arc。This book was short。 I love doodling and started looking at all the images and the ook ended。The pictures I saw were lovely BUT I cidnt figure how I was supposed to paint。 Some instructions would have helped。 Personally, I would have preferred plants to household items to doodle。

As an adult with little to no drawing experience, I was immediately drawn to this book。 (no pun intended)The tutorials are organized into seven sections: In my Bag, In my Room, In my Kitchen, In my Bathroom, On my Deck, In my Closet, Out & About。Each object includes a 10-step illustrated guide, written instructions for each step, a color key, and a colored example of the final step of the drawing。As a beginner, I found this guide did an excellent job outlining every step with clear illustrations As an adult with little to no drawing experience, I was immediately drawn to this book。 (no pun intended)The tutorials are organized into seven sections: In my Bag, In my Room, In my Kitchen, In my Bathroom, On my Deck, In my Closet, Out & About。Each object includes a 10-step illustrated guide, written instructions for each step, a color key, and a colored example of the final step of the drawing。As a beginner, I found this guide did an excellent job outlining every step with clear illustrations and easy-to-follow text。 I was pleasantly surprised at the variety of objects included; this made the book fun to flip through!I would recommend this book to beginning artists or anyone interested in improving their art。 It’s perfect for both older kids and adults。Thank you, Walter Foster, for my review copy。 。。。more

5 stars, Easy and funTEN-STEP DRAWING: EVERYDAY THINGSThough I was disappointed, that the review copy I was provided by #netgalley was only a partial excerpt, the book did have several everyday things that I liked, and was able to make my first attempts at drawing。 My most favorite thing was a key with a house fob key chain。 Who knew that a key would be so easy to draw? Very doable for this doodler。Highly recommend it as a gift for children or adults。I was thoughtfully provided a complimentary c 5 stars, Easy and funTEN-STEP DRAWING: EVERYDAY THINGSThough I was disappointed, that the review copy I was provided by #netgalley was only a partial excerpt, the book did have several everyday things that I liked, and was able to make my first attempts at drawing。 My most favorite thing was a key with a house fob key chain。 Who knew that a key would be so easy to draw?

In Ten-Step Drawing: Everyday Things, Justine Lecouffe walks readers through a step by step process of drawing 60 ordinary items found in many households。 The process she uses is very good, breaking items up into shapes and then building from there。 As such, this is a great book for beginning artists to see the process。 However, the book would have better suited readers had she also explained this process to readers so that those who are not as intuitive would be better suited to applying the te In Ten-Step Drawing: Everyday Things, Justine Lecouffe walks readers through a step by step process of drawing 60 ordinary items found in many households。 The process she uses is very good, breaking items up into shapes and then building from there。 As such, this is a great book for beginning artists to see the process。 However, the book would have better suited readers had she also explained this process to readers so that those who are not as intuitive would be better suited to applying the techniques to other items。Disclaimer: An advance copy was provided by the publisher。 。。。more

I received a copy of this book through NetGalley in exchange for an honest review。This is a cute book! But it definitely feels like it's for people with some drawing experience。While some of the drawings are simple, others have a lot of detail that can be difficult to fill in。 There's step-by-step instructions that show how things come together。 There's also a color pallet included in each drawing which is nice。 There's a variety of things to draw included in this book from food to things and pl I received a copy of this book through NetGalley in exchange for an honest review。This is a cute book!

This is a lovely book! If you’ve always thought you can’t draw but like to doodle shapes while you’re on the phone or thoughtful, this book would help you progress to drawing actual objects。 It’s helpful because it helps you identify shapes in everyday objects, like circles and rectangles, and build them up into drawings of objects。 Nicely presented。 My thanks to NetGalley and publisher for a digital copy in exchange for my review。 I’m off to draw some pajamas :)
