What do children hope to create when they put pencil to paper? An accurate likeness of the things they see, of course. With this imaginative, informative, and amply-illustrated guide to drawing, it's amazingly easy for kids to make those art dreams come true. After a brief overview of tools and materials, the entertaining hands-on activities begin with contour drawing techniques. With the help of lots of exercises, budding artists will learn the basic elements of shapes (lines, dots, circles) and see how to combine them to make familiar forms. They'll find out how to produce the illusion of volume with shading techniques; create perspective; accurately recreate landscapes, people, animals, and nature; develop interesting compositions; and more.

Summary: Great Book
Comment: Great book. Even my 11 year olds art teacher at school asked to borrow it. Makes harder things to draw easy with a great "break down" approach.
Customer Rating:
Summary: Deceptive Title, way too advanced for kids.
Comment: I ordered this book for my 8 year old grandson who loves to draw. The title said this book was for kids, and showed pictures of children around his age on the cover and back cover.
When the book arrived I was totally dissapointed. It would be hard for an adult to use this book let alone a child, at least in my opinion. I think it is way too advanced for kids. I thought the techniques would be more basic, and easier for children to follow.
This book might be good for pre-teens or teens who have lots of artistic talent in them already, but for the average child who just likes to have fun drawing I thought it was way too advanced.

Comment: Art for Kids: Drawing: The Only Drawing Book You'll Ever Need to Be the Artist You've Always Wanted to Be
Found this book to be perfect for the budding artist
in the 12 year old range. Very detailed and yet
you can pick and chose what you want to work on.
Many helpful hints that I didn't pick up til my
college art classes. Great gift.

Summary: Great kids' art book
Comment: My 11-year old son loves to draw. His skills are self taught, and he has checked out MANY books from the library over the years. He recently checked out this book and declared it one of the best he'd ever seen. (I bought it from Amazon for a Christmas present.) Even though he already understands shading, perspective, etc., he thought this book helped him improve even more. The book also has a lot on drawing people and faces, which can be very challenging.
