Strokes of Genius 3 - The Best of Drawing

The talent showcased in this book is unsurpassable. I had to keep reminding myself that these artists are among the best in the field so that I wouldn't become disheartened. The artists do include commentaries on the techniques and perspectives they used but unless you already have a high-level of competency, being able to create something anywhere near on a par is a long shot. I'm looking at this more as something to reveal new techniques from which I can choose a selection that really appeal, that I can concentrate on mastering. Absolutely beautiful book.
