50 Ways to Draw Your Beautiful, Ordinary Life: Practical Lessons in Pencil and Paper

I just got this book to improve my drawing skills and it sure helped. I also like the fact that they provide you pages for you to sketch in, so please have a pencil or pen ready in hand when reading this book. They first teach you how to draw a simple object and then slowly guide you in adding more details and colors. A fun and enjoyable book. Highly recommended !!

Excellent. A joy to work with the book. Lots of activities and ready to do projects. Working daily with this book for 15 minutes is quite rejuvenating.

If you are new in the field of art of illustrations then this book is definitely worth a try. Easy to follow step by step drawing activities. A fun activity book for those who are familiar with the art of illustrations and looking for something interesting.

Um livro super didatico, facil de entender mesmo em inglês, comprei para a minha filha de 14 anos e ela aprendeu muitas coisas com ele. Vários desenhos, ensinamentos. Muito bom!

If you are artsy, or want to be artsy and are eager to learn how to draw graphic images, don’t hesitate. I say “graphic” images because this isn’t a book on realism in the fussy way of so many "learn to draw" books, such as those teaching you to draw portraits or landscapes. The images are line drawings using different media. They are real world, but fun and playful, not nitpicky. I can say, without reservation, this is the BEST creativity, artsy, how-to book I have ever seen. I can’t remember ever having as much fun with an art book as I am having. Each page turn leads me to another fun challenge. The book has pages enough to practice everything they show you. In fact, in the watercolour section they even has watercolour paper. The pages are all made of a nice paper too. NOT the super cheap paper usually found in how-to artsy fartsy books. There are even a couple pages of good quality, durable, tracing paper! The treasures (because they ARE treasures!) they provide are an absolute blast. There are even PAPER DOLLS to draw on - I’m 55 years old and these paper dolls have me giggling and wanting to make more. The house to draw in is a hoot. There are instructions on how to draw different things you might find in a house, plants, side table, desk, etc. Plain postcards to draw on - why on earth did I never think of making my own postcards before?! Even the dust over unfolds into a huge, funky poster I think I'll try ironing it to get out the folds or maybe I'll cut out the inspirational sayings to jazz up another creation... The ONLY flaw is that the removable adhesive they use left stains on three of the dolls. I don't know if it will affect drawing on them, but even if it does - no big deal. I'll glue something to cover them. This book makes it out here to be content in a life where I can't afford Flow Magazine. SOMEDAY! If the authors or publishers ever see this comment: PLEASE MAKE MORE BOOKS LIKE THIS! I have a couple of your other books with goodies inside and I am head over heels in love with the treasure book feel. Thank you for creating this! Joyously signed, Shelby Raymond

Un tesoro. Me gustaria tener todos los libros de flow. Estan hechos con cariño y se nota. Para dibujar desde cero cero. Love

Was für eine Fundgrube an kreativen Tätigkeiten. Ab und zu kaufe ich mir ja mal ein Flow-Magazin. Das hier ist in seiner Fülle an Anstößen jedoch nicht zu übertreffen. Auf jeder Seite gibt es hier etwas tolles zu tun. Gut um es in den Park oder ein Café mitzunehmen - oder einfach für eine kreative Stunde zuhause.

Great projects and even provides papers and little booklets within so you can practice your own drawing and painting :)
