Drawing is an acquired skill, not a talent -- anyone can learn to draw! All you need is a pencil, a piece of paper, and the willingness to tap into your hidden artistic abilities. With Emmy award-winning, longtime PBS host Mark Kistler as your guide, you'll learn the secrets of sophisticated three-dimensional renderings, and have fun along the way -- in just twenty minutes a day for a month. Inside you'll find: Quick and easy step-by-step instructions for drawing everything from simple spheres to apples, trees, buildings, and the human hand and face More than 500 line drawings, illustrating each step Time-tested tips, techniques, and tutorials for drawing in 3-D The 9 Fundamental Laws of Drawing to create the illusion of depth in any drawing 75 student examples to encourage you in the process Review: Does what the title says - I nearly overlooked this book because it didn't have a fancy artistic cover, unlike many other art instruction books. As an adult with no formal art training, no perceived drawing "talent" and looking for a first instruction book to help improve my infrequent doodling, I was also rather skeptical of the book's cheesy title claim of teaching someone to draw in 30 days. Then I noticed some before and after drawings by other reviewers, and after also considering titles like "Keys to Drawing", "Drawing on the Right Side of the Brain" and "How to Draw What You See", I decided to look beyond this book's cover and give it a go myself. The book has 30 lessons, and while it's taken me over 30 days, I'm very glad that I started with this book. The step-by-step lessons are clear and easy to follow, there's no complicated theory about technique etc. that could easily put off an absolute beginner. Most importantly, you see immediate results very quickly... By the end of lesson 2, my stack of spheres was already getting compliments! Since then I've realised that the lessons provide a really good primer to some basic drawing concepts - shapes, shading, foreshortening, perspective... and the fact you can reproduce a drawing similar to the author's by following the steps is a big confidence booster. Personally I found that this newfound confidence was just the encouragement needed for me to progress... This book will not teach you to draw realistically or become a master of portraits, but it does teach you how to draw basic pleasing images. I like the author's lighted-hearted happy style and it's been one enlightening lesson after another as I discovered I could draw things which I couldn't before. Since starting this book, I also got my hands on "Drawing on the Right Side of the Brain" and "Keys to Drawing", and remain satisfied that this book was the right one to start my drawing journey with. A great book for an absolute beginner. Review: Highly recommend to beginners - I don't have much drawing experience before and can't even be "creative" enough to draw a stick figure. Certain things happened that inspired me into learning drawing. After searched around I finally decided to purchase this book because of so many good reviews. I managed to finish it in 10 days because I always wanted to learn more. Some people don't like the fact that the drawings in the book are more cartoonish rather than realistic drawings. I disagree, I think this book is perfect for a total beginner. Start to draw realistically will scare many beginners like me away, because it involves a lot of details and you have to think about proportions and so on, which will discourage you if you found out your drawings are totally trash. I even doubt if the author can explain a drawing within a few pages. Instead, the author starts from drawing basic components and repeats the drawing rules from lesson to lesson, and beginners can be confident enough to achieve his/her goal for each lesson and move on to the next lesson and eventually gets an understanding of drawing basics. I can see myself improving. I not only mean comparing with pretest my drawing improved. Seriously, if you have no idea of perspective, shading and shadow before, I'm pretty sure how your pretest would look like... I also mean when you learn these basics you started to pay attention to your surroundings about the shading, reflection etc and in turn it will help you improve your drawing. After I finished this book, I bought another one that contains beautiful realist drawings with barely any step by step instructions. It is at the moment hard for me to reproduce the beautiful drawings, however, it's a matter of practice. If I didn't learn from Mark Kistler's book, I wouldn't even have the ability to start to draw with that book. The only thing I want to point out is that the book claims you can finish 1 lesson in 30 minutes. Maybe it was just me, however, it took me much longer to finish incl. bonus challenges. So all in all, a great book for a total beginner. It can always keep you encouraged and keep learning because each lesson is mission easy and possible. It will also prepare you with a better position if you want to learn more realistic drawings. I highly recommend this book for anyone who never drew before and wants to start. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #8,116 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #5 in Pencil Drawing #5 in Arts & Photography Study & Teaching #5 in Figure Drawing Guides | | Customer Reviews | 4.6 out of 5 stars 7,633 Reviews | ## Images ![You Can Draw in 30 Days: The Fun, Easy Way to Learn to Draw in One Month or Less - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71841IvfK4L.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Does what the title says *by A***R on October 7, 2016* I nearly overlooked this book because it didn't have a fancy artistic cover, unlike many other art instruction books.

I still can't draw, but it's enjoyable. The techniques it teaches are really cool and presented fairly easily. The problem is if you just can't draw a circle at all then all the shading and perspective gets lost in the ugly mess. Still recommend it though. ## Frequently Bought Together - You Can Draw in 30 Days: The Fun, Easy Way to Learn to Draw in One Month or Less - Fuxi 9" x 12" Sketch Book, Top Spiral Bound Sketch Pad, 1 Pack 100 Sheets 68lb/100gsm, Acid Free Art Sketchbook Artistic Drawing Painting Writing Paper for Kids Adults Beginners Artists - 30 Days Learning to Draw: 30-Day Drawing Checklist with Step By Step Instructions on How to Draw Different Subjects Such as Animals, Plants, Humans, ...
