E-Book Overview
The 1-2-3 Draw books are so much fun! I am 35 and still draw the same as when I was in grade school. My kids ages 9 and 7 are always are asking me to help them draw something but they draw better than me so I am no help at all! Now that we have these books, we all are learning the little tricks you need to know to be a better artist. It's simple, very clear and easy instructions to follow, fun AND everything turns out looking great! They'll be teaching their friends how to draw before they know it. I wish I would have had these when I was a kid.
