50 Ways to Draw Your Beautiful, Ordinary Life: Practical Lessons in Pencil and Paper (Flow) by Irene Smit,Astrid van der Hulst,Illustrators from Flow is After years of drawing stick figures, I wanted to learn how to draw in a way that another person could actually get an idea of what my pictures were supposed to be. I started 2018 with a book that has something that can be drawn everyday. So far so good. As a fan of Flow products, I was thrilled when I saw they were coming out with this, and even more excited when I got my copy.The book is a softcover with a cover of decent thickness. The dust jacket comes off, and the flip side of it is a poster covered with encouraging quotes. The book itself is divided into four parts: home, garden, style and nature. Some of the things that you can draw are: a house, cup and saucer, bookcase, desk, wicker chair, wood-burning stove, lamp, filter coffeepot, clothesline, flowers, flowerpot, herb garden, watering can, bird, porch swing, plants, radish, lemons, garden tools, hat, cat, flourishes and accents, thermos, tents, wood cabin, leaves, camper and more.Since it’s from flow, it is stuffed full of additional goodies: There is a house that is printed on stiff paper, folded in half and already decorated, along with a second one for you to fill the rooms with whatever you want in them. There is a little booklet that can be removed for your own drawings. There is a set of connected paper dolls that can be removed for you to dress by drawing your own outfits. There are also postcards to decorate, additional blank pages to do what you want with, colored paper and paper to trace with. The pages throughout are fairly sturdy, better than the paper in most softcover books.I highly recommend this. This is such a fun book for the price!

I adore it :)

50 Ways to Draw Your Beautiful, Ordinary Life: Practical Lessons in Pencil and Paper (Flow) by Irene Smit,Astrid van der Hulst,Illustrators from Flow is This is such a fun book, with the classic Flow Magazine inclusions, which include postcards, a paper doll to dress, and much more! It is filled with plenty of detailed drawing instructions, as well as inspirational completed drawings for further explorations. Some of the drawings are very basic, and others are more advanced. I also like that there's a variety of artists' represented, so it exposes the reader to various styles and genres. I highly recommend this book for people of all artistic levels, for it's creative stimulating content!

50 Ways to Draw Your Beautiful, Ordinary Life: Practical Lessons in Pencil and Paper (Flow) by Irene Smit,Astrid van der Hulst,Illustrators from Flow is I ordered this about a month ago and couldn't wait for it to arrive. It is the sweetest book for anyone who likes to doodle and try new media. Simple pointers and examples of techniques and JUST PLAIN FUN. I'm a long time doodler and love the simple layout, colorful examples and "goodies" included in the book. I use it for enjoyment in my quiet time, but also when I need a creative break from my graphic design business. It's a great way to get my hands-to-art, especially when needing a break from my computer! I LOVE this book. I hope you do too!
