This book was a present for my daughter who just turned 12. She is really delighted with it and was inspired to spend hours drawing the day she got it. She is really interested in drawing techniques and even though I am a professional artist she will pay attention to the tips and techniques in the book and not really listen to me...but it has really brought life to the things I've told her. She now wants to set up a fashion website with her pal.
The book is really easy to follow and very comprehensive. It teaches the youngster about loose drawing, figure sketching, fabric textures and overall "looks" - she loves that bit and has come up with pages of looks of her own.
A fantastic book for a beginner.
