Drawing lab for mixed-media artists 52 creative exercises to make drawing fun

Sonheim, a painter, illustrator, and workshop instructor, uses skills learned by drawing-e.g., learning to "see" and focus, developing your "hand"-to instill the confidence to get wildly creative in mixed media. In 52 weekly projects, she finds inspiration in famous artists, childhood, and nature. One week focuses on "Your Inner Dr. -Seuss," another on drawing 100 experimental portraits. Sonheim hopes to return adults to the creative innocence of childhood. A good choice for artists of any level. (c) Copyright 2010.
