Product Description Drawing is a skill, like riding a bike or throwing a ball. The key is to understand what you're drawing. Once you understand your subject the act of drawing becomes a less daunting process. In this video, Larry Withers will show you how to draw by introducing and building upon a series of simple drawing skills. Now anyone, regardless of art experience can learn to draw... and draw well. Review Larry Withers, founder of On Air Video, is the driving force behind this very comprehensive, generous at under $20 and lengthy presentation about drawing. Based on the premise that drawing is a skill, Mr. Withers takes the viewer through numerous stages of learning to draw, beginning with materials and tools and concluding with a chapter about diffi cult drawing subjects. Additional topics include warming up exercises, understanding shapes and negative space, using tones, seeing light and shadows, drawing still lifes, drawing landscapes and rendering room interiors, including using perspective. The content of each chapter is very detailed in a refreshing manner that challenges the viewer to learn a lot. The chapters are designed in a manner in which explanations are followed by examples. The pictured demonstrations progress slowly so the viewer can work along with the video. The chapters unfold in a very logical manner and build on each other, which reinforces the previously introduced skills. As this video is very sophisticated, it is best used with teenage through adult-aged students, and used it should be. In addition to the basic DVD, PDF fifi les are included with a materials and tools list, a chart of tonal values and photos from the video. These materials will all provide a convenient means for copying written material for the user audience. --Arts & Activities

Great Beginners Instruction
This DVD is a wonderful way for anyone to learn how to draw. It assists in developing an artist's eye, and gives lessons that not only show you how to draw, but also how to get ready to draw. Highly recommended.

This step-by-step guide not only to draw but above all to understand drawing is an excellent way to set you up in the right path of professional drawing. I highly recommend this video to adults and children as well.

Is not worth it
For $20 bucks u can get at least 2 of this cheap DVDs I can sell u the one I bought for 10 jst to get some of the money I wasted. The video guy is left handed and is so short on time he just keeps talking about some stuff that is not necessary for this lessons well is up to u trust me this is worthless

Not as Great Just as Simple
I thought this Dvd would be off the hook but it's just OK. I feel like he could have given more depth details and maybe expand some of the chapters. This DVD is divided into 12 chapters. Each chapter has its own exercises, which i think they were good(not all of them). The teaching is Mainly about looking for simple shapes, Lines, Tones, Light and Shadows, Perspective and Landscapes. Like i said, it doesn't give a lot of Depth Details about each subject. I'm just so glad that they came up with a DVD for Drawing cuz u get to see the person in action like u would in a classroom and it gives u a feeling of encouraging.

Very helpful, and I'm speaking for those of us who weren't "born with it" but want to learn how to draw so we can learn to paint.
