This will be a very quick review - Lifelike Drawing with Lee Hammond. I purchased two books from Lee Hammond at the same time (a link to the second is here Lifelike Drawing in Coloured Pencil with Lee Hammond) I "try" to Draw and Sketch, not very well, but I try. But I was after some additional information in the form of a book so, having searched the Internet for various options, and also gaining some advice that Lee Hammond had helped several Internet contacts, I purchased the books.
This was a good move. Both books are well set put and easy to use. Worth a look if you want some assistance in Drawing and the like.

She is an incredible artist, she can draw just like a photograph. I have never thought of smudging pencil to make it more realistic- but it works. She has broken down the main issues of drawing into fun exercises that help you gain skill and confidence in your work.
A remarkable book, a must buy for realistic drawing!

Possibly Lee Hammond's best book
6 Aug 2005
Format:Paperback|Amazon Verified Purchase
Even if you own Lee Hammond's other drawing books, there is still a wealth of information to be gained from this one! The author provides clear instructions on a variety of topics -- from drawing stunning glass objects to producing the most technical architecture renderings -- it's all here, in the unique Hammond style.
If I had to choose one drawing book to keep, out of my entire collection, it'd likely be this one. I'm thoroughly enjoying the reading of it and looking forward to practicing the many tutorials it offers.
I give it a resounding A+.

Lee Hammon Does it Again
28 April 2005
Format:Paperback
She has a way of describing her techniques and showing what needs to be done with just the right amount of information. She is gifted and it shows, not only in her art work, but in her writing as well. If you want to learn to draw real life, get this book.
