Description

A bold new edition of the groundbreaking book by two of America's most prominent visual artists, James Gurney and Thomas Kinkade, freshly updated with a new introduction, archival photos, and illuminated text to guide a new generation of illustrators.

"If I could have only one drawing book in my library, this would be it." – Shari Blaukopf, author of Urban Sketching Handbook: Working With Color.

Since its release in 1982, The Artist's Guide to Drawing has become a classic art guide for students and non-professionals around the world. The book includes instruction and artwork from James Gurney and Thomas Kinkade—two students who would gain fame with Dinotopia (Gurney) and as the "Painter of Light" (Kinkade). This new edition restores the classic text with updated color illustrations and a special section that captures the book's roots and friendship, drawing from the archives of Gurney and the Kinkade family.
