Hahnemuhle Kraft Sketchbooks

Hahnemuhle Kraft Sketchbooks st Artsavingsclub

The Hahnemühle Kraft sketchbook resembles an exercise book, but being more durable and professional, it is the ideal companion for purists. The spiral binding and sturdy cover makes it rugged and flexible at the same time and therefore the ideal travel companion when sketching on the go. Drawing on location is not a problem as the cover can be fully opened to provide a sturdy base. The spiral sketchbook also has a pocket in the back cover with space for notes and a black elasticated strap to keep the book closed when not in use. The 120gsm, acid-free paper is ochre and provides the artist with an interesting mid-tone to work in for adding highlights and shadows. It comes with 80 pages and is available in A4 and A5 formats.

Perspective – Artists Library Series – Walter Foster

walter-foster-artists-library-series-perspective

Whether you specialize in drawing – even cartooning and animation or prefer media such as acrylic, oil, pastel, or watercolour, a good knowledge of perspective is invaluable. It is the foundation of all great paintings and drawings, no matter what medium. Perspective shows you everything you need to know to make objects look three dimensional. Practice the methods of measuring and dividing areas proportionately; then learn how we perceive depth and distance, and how to render it correctly on paper or canvas. You will learn the basics and beyond, covering concepts like foreshortening; cast shadows; reflections; and even one-, two-, and three-point perspectives. And once you have a good grasp of the basics, it’s easy to graduate to more complex and irregular forms. This comprehensive guide will show you how!
