Painting and Drawing Books

You should build up your own painting and drawing books reference library.

Painting and drawing is not something that you completely learn during a weekend course. As you build up your artistic skills, you will find out that there is so much to learn: from the fundamental skills needed to draw a simple line, to more advanced (and fun) topics such as drawing cartoons, figure drawing, pencil drawing, and Manga drawing.

There is simply just so much to learn!

Recommended Books About Drawing

These are only a few painting books I recommend. You'll notice I've included one on digital painting. Not the same as conventional painting? Well, yes and no! Painting on canvas combines the skills of color, form and texture. Digital painting mimics these skills.

However, digital painting is an art in intself and, depending on the graphic application you use, you'll be able to create master pieces that can be shown simultaneously around the world throught the internet. You can create your own private/public digital gallery!

I have also included a couple of books about one of my pet learning areas: air brushing! That is another area of drawing and painting all together, and one that is very popular in America... and quickly becoming very popular in Australia!
