Beginning Drawing Atelier: An Instructional Sketchbook : Aristides, Juliette: desertcart.co.uk: Books Review: Absolutely beautiful book! - Absolute amazing illustrations. But I expected more blank pages to draw by myself. Review: Great for beginners - So far I am really enjoying this book! This is my first time using a sketching workbook and it’s fairly easy to learn from. It also helps that this doubles as a sketchbook so you get space to practice exactly what you study! I’ve never learned how to draw and I feel like this book is helping me.

Different approach, best for beginners
This must be the best book for beginners - it covers the basic but fundamental principles of drawing: line, shape, volume, value, form and also has a chapter on portraits. The book is based on the principle that copying other artists’ work is one of the best ways to learn, and it actually works, at least for me. The book contains plenty of exercises so you will have a lot of opportunities to practice what you’ve learnt. You also don’t need fancy materials - some graphite pencils and a white polymer or kneaded eraser. Highly recommended.

Gentle organic approach to drawing
This book is like a curated, delightful adventure. I have bought other drawing books in the past but it left me a little frustrated trying to remember all the technicalities; bombarded with a lot of information. This feels very freeing and is delightful on every chapter. I actually started to enjoy the process of drawing and I feel so giddy and happy when a drawing comes together :) I highly recommend getting the physical copy as this is a sketchbook for you to work on.
