Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Evolving from a drawing course taught to first-year architecture students, this text teaches the foundations, taking the point of view that drawing is fundamentally a tactile and kinesthetic act (for which the author gives credit to Kimon Nicolaides and his book The Natural Way to Draw. Theory, exercises, and examples combine to present the art of drawing as an "act of making rather than as an act of viewing." May be the one drawing book architecture students need, and certainly should interest art students and others outside of architecture as well. Annotation copyright by Book News, Inc., Portland, OR
