Sketching

Koos Eissen and Roselien Steur have written a worthy successor to 'the best sketching book I have ever seen' as design guru Colani dubbed their 2007 publication. The new book explains basic sketching techniques and provides many more step-by-step example drawings, which makes it even more suitable for students and professionals who want to become better sketchers.

'What you always wanted to know but was never explained in a simple and efficient way.'

This is the long-awaited successor to the international best seller Sketching by Koos Eissen and Roselien Steur. Sketching sold over 70,000 copies to date and has many fans, among whom design guru Colani who dubbed it: 'The best sketching book I have ever seen.'

The successor that should have appeared first
Sketching The Basics can be seen as the prequel to Sketching as it is more targeted at the novice designer. Sketching The Basics explains the essential techniques and effects more in detail, taking the reader by the hand and providing a step-by-step guide through all the various aspects of drawing that novice designers come up against.

Step-by-step examples
Sketching the Basics starts with the white sheet of paper or the empty screen and explains the rudiments of learning to draw both clearly and comprehensively, using step-by-step illustrations, examples and strategies.
