I’m one of those middle-aged adults who “has never been able to draw”. Unusually for me (where “learning to draw” is concerned), I quite enjoyed each lesson here and wasn’t tempted to bail out partway through the course. I think that’s because the material was 1. non-intimidating, 2. encouraging, 3. introduced a fairly small amount of technical knowledge. This last might be viewed as a negative point: and I suspect some topics such as shadows were not strictly correct. But on the other hand, you might argue that beginner lessons introduce concepts in a simplified way that can be expanded/refined with future study.

Overall, a decent starter course that’s whetted my appetite to learn more.

A very helpful book that simplifies drawing into an easily usable format. I just wanted to be able to draw/sketch some basic things and this book made it possible for me to feel successful. Recommended.

This is the second Mark Kistler book that I used, along with the separate workbook, for my year 2 of art class with about 10 students. I like the drawings in this book. They are more complicated than the ones in the original Draw Squad book, but Mark Kistler still provides the step-by-step. The book is laid out in an A-Z format. The workbook is really optional and I found that we preferred plain paper, as a class, but for an individual, the separate workbook might be a really nice addition.

About 8 years ago, I started using this book for our art curriculum for our homeschool. The kids LOVED it. They were 8 & 4 at the time. Since then, I have adapted the lessons to be used with an art class of kids ranging in age from K-12th grade. The drawings are cartoon/animation drawings, but the artistic terminology and techniques easily lead into more sophisticated material. I found this book to be an excellent starting place for kids and drawing.
