This is a simple and straightforward book for anyone who wants to learn drawing with pen and ink. Half of the book is in tutorial style with techniques that are easy to follow. It covers the usual types of line hatching and more importantly how to make your illustration more picturesque.
The other half of the book is sort of a gallery but rather limited in variety. Still there are plenty of accompanying tips.
This book covers mainly drawing architectural stuff, animals, boats, the usual topics cover by pen and ink. The coverage on portrait drawing is limited at best, and the result doesn't seem too good either.
It's a quick starter guide recommended for beginners.

Pen & Ink Techniques
I've bought half a dozen books recently for pen and ink and this is one of the better ones. He describes and shows the techniques and steps very clearly and there's a nice range of exercises and subject to try and draw yourself. Not quite as good as Claudia Nice books but he runs a very close 2nd!

Ideal book for beginners
21 Feb 2012
Format:Paperback
Pen & Ink Techniques (Dover Art Instruction)
This is a really good book and explains the steps in detail stage by stage. Very good drawings and exercises to reproduce. And a great and broad variety of subjects, landscapes, buildings, rivers, boats, animals, people etc.where some books I've seen focus more on landscapes and building or other inanimate objects. All round good value.

I bought this book for my husband and he can't put it down. Excercizes increase skills at a rapid rate. Well written, great examples and exercises. Good for beginner and advanced artists. We highly recommend this book.
