Summary: Lame, lame, lame, and weak
Comment: Confusing it for Bert Dodson's "Keys to Drawing," I picked up this book at the library and was more than relieved I never bought it. Filled with chapters on various aspects of drawing, "Basic Drawing Techniques" is a Reader's Digest of art instruction, as each chapter is written by a different person. (Hint: comparing this book to Reader's Digest, a publication that tends to gloss over things in the name of brevity, is not a compliment!) As you can expect for a book of this type, the material cursorily goes over the art of drawing without really going into any depth. Worse yet, it's just lame and uninspiring, well-meaning intentions aside. There's nothing in this book that you haven't already read before in every other standard art instruction book, and there's nothing revolutionary in this book that will help you become a better artist or even learn how to draw if you are a beginner. The only good chapter is the excerpt from Bert Dodson's excellent book, which in my opinion is a far superior book than this one. So that being said, my suggestion is to cut out the middleman and just buy his book instead! This one, unfortunately, is for the birds. One star from me.
