The Drawing Lesson

An instructional art book in narrative graphic novel form that uses the tale of one aspiring young artist and his reluctant mentor to impart easy to follow lessons on the fundamentals of drawing.With over 10 million views and growing, Mark Crilley s YouTube drawing instruction videos have an enormous worldwide legion of fans and have been featured on sites such as Yahoo News and Reddit In addition, Crilley is an accomplished graphic novelist Now for the first time, he pairs both strengths resulting in a one of a kind art instruction experience Through the story of aspiring, overeager young artist in the making David and his helpful, but often flustered mentor, Becky, readers gain a grounding in the basics of drawing and rendering, along with a helping of laughs and poignant entertainment Each lesson builds off the previous, with sidebars at the end of each chapter that direct readers to tackle some of the very same drawing exercises that David has just completed The sequential art format provides the perfect vehicle for these step by step lessons, and the Pixar esque approach to the surrounding characters and story ensures an enjoyable experience that readers will want to revisit again and again.
