less instruction manual, more motivation manual.
The point of this book isn’t to TEACH you to draw, it’s to GET you to draw. While I didn’t do every activity in this book, I flipped through and picked a bunch of them after reading the whole thing. Some ideas I skipped over but may come back to. All in all not a bad book, but nothing groundbreaking either, basically half motivational speech and half drawing prompts.
