There are four tutorials in this book each using 2-3 colors: dice, car, honey dipper and pot, yawning tiger. This book is about drawing with colored pencils on toned paper in a realistic style. The author advises which pencils to use, why and when.I am no artist but do like to color and create. The author explains how to create grids to help with accurate drawing and there are step by step instructions which are easy to follow. I could see myself able to follow and complete the drawings of the dice and honeypot. If I had a lot of time, patience and some good tracing paper I might attempt the tiger which is awesome but there is NO way I could recreate the car. Way beyond my league and definitely for the more experienced artist!Please note that the author is a lady from Serbia, now living in Hungary. It is obvious that English is not her first language but don't be put off. The book is VERY readable and one I would recommend. I said above for ages 9-99. If you have a younger child that is talented in the arts, then he/she may well be able to do some of these too. It goes without saying that if you are over 99 and wanting to draw and crayon, my hat goes off to you and I say "Have a go!"
I like the many illustration photos for each drawing. There are 4 drawings. The cover shows them all...and they look like something I want to try...especially the honey and the tiger. Her descriptions for each drawing are helpful and, I feel, complete.
I enjoyed her way of teaching thru grids and explaining the process simply and then linking a you tube video after each chapter.
I really like this book because it is obvious the artist knows her stuff well. The tutorials are easy to understand and to follow, and the pictures of each step in the drawing process are clear and concise.The only bone I have to pick is regarding the poor job done to properly translate this book into the English language. There is a lot of room for improvement in this department.
