 For all those who long to have the ability to draw, to produce an
accurate representation of the world around them, Betty Edwards
opened that up to them with her classic drawing guide, New
Drawing on the Right Side of the Brain.
Now she has produced a workbook containing exercises that will
reinforce the five basic skills of drawing, The New Drawing on the
Right Side of the Brain Workbook.
The right side of the brain controls our creativity, but education in
emphasising the left side of the brain's conceptual, analytical
manner often causes it to stagnate. Betty Edwards' exercises
reactivate the right side of the brain, encouraging a new way to see
and bring about a dramatic improvement in the ability to draw.
New Drawing on the Right Side of the Brain is the most successful
drawing instruction book ever published. By following the
exercises, the artist will discover a radically different way of seeing
and thinking; a shift to the right side of the brain, utilising its more
intuitive and artistic aspects of thinking.
Now Betty Edwards provides a series of simple but effective
exercises to follow while practicing your drawing. All subject
matters are covered, from portrait drawing to still life, landscapes to
imaginative drawing and a variety of mediums are explained such as
pen and ink, charcoal and conte crayon. Each of the forty exercises
provides an appropriate subject matter, brief instructions and a
ready-made format in which to draw (the revolutionary viewfinder
which is provided).
