Summary: Excellent, lot's of tips & techniques
Comment: This is an excellent book for anyone just starting to learn pen & ink drawing. This is not a step-by-step, draw what I draw, book. It is more a collection of tips & techniques for drawing almost any subject.

The author starts out by explaining each kind of line and what it's used for. Next, she explains value. Ink washes, a dry brush, and a variety of different line types are then used to create contrast and texture.

The design & composition section is great for showing you how to put everything together and what pitfalls to look out for. She also guides you through choosing a subject, finding a good photo to work from and achieving perspective.

Finally, each kind of subject is explained in detail. Some include flowers, landscapes, all kinds of water, and buildings. She also covers many animals including dogs, horses & birds. Human faces & figures are detailed as well.

Summary: Sketching Your Favorite Subjects In Pen & Ink
Comment: Claudia Nice has put together an excellent book for anyone desiring to create works in Pen & Ink. The information in this book is not only ideal for the beginner, but also a great source of information and inspiration for the advanced artist. Along with the authors wonderful renderings are other pen & ink works from other artists that are sure to increase your respect for the medium. This book is simply wonderful and will surely become well worn from the many times you will want to go back to it for reference or simply to just view the wonderful images it contains. My copy of her book is near my drawing table at all times. Claudia, Bravo!

Rating: 5
Summary: It's the definitive book of pen and ink drawing.
Comment: You learn more in this book than any art class anywhere. It teachs you more than the art instructor does. It makes you understand art in a more broad range. It teaches you everything you need to know about drawing with pens and ink. You learn how to draw water in motion, landscapes, and many other things. It's very helpful.
