This third book in the popular Do More Art series exposes how the
simplest of writing tools is in fact the key to an entire universe
of artistic expression. From simple doodling and mark-making to
meticulously built-up tour de forces - a piece of graphite is all
that is needed to create whole new worlds. Selwyn Leamy and Eve
Blackwood explore the many different ways the pencil can be used:
from hatching and smudging to frottage and even collage. Each
technique is clearly explained and illustrated with works by some
of the greatest contemporary pencil practitioners - demonstrating
once and for all that the pencil really is mightier than the pen.
Learn to draw figures and faces with this clear and easy to follow
guide, the latest in the bestselling 'Read This' series. Revealing

set you on the path to making your own great drawings. From
traditional life drawing to unconventional character studies, works
by masters such as Henri Matisse, Auguste Rodin and Vincent van
Gogh, as well as contemporary artists including Marlene Dumas, Zin
Lim and Catherine Kehoe, all serve to illustrate a range of
approaches and encourage readers to try out new ideas. Read This if
