I bought it some months ago. I'm already an art student and I realized that some of my teachers taught techniques that resembled or were related to those found in the book, but having the real source and starting point of all those was wonderful. I've changed my way of approaching every subject; I'm not relying only on pure imagination to draw, and now I give my art a good foundation based in reality. I also learned how to bypass the common and dreaded 'artist's block' which it's nothing more that interference from the left brain and cowardice (because you don't fully trust your abilities). The experience was humbling too, because I realized that everybody has the same capabilities, the only things that make the difference are you personal experiences and the time you've spent practicing and polishing your skill.

I hope we do get to see something you draw. But are you aware that "rubber" means "condom" over here? :) @ Ali, way to go! I hope we do get to see something you draw.

Woo! Also have a sketchpad and 4B pencil and a good rubber. I'll let you know how it goes. You may see a picture of a knight on a horse on Aliventures at some point soon. :-) Massively late comment …

Oh my god, I can't believe how lucky i was to run across it in the library (and i only go to the library like once a year :s). I'm not sure if I'm getting better or not, but it definitely gave me a confidence boost/motivation.

I say try all things and let go of judgment - find the joy in the doing and being - that will shine through.

I've even heard some people say an older one was better. @ Raine, I think your old book will be fine. I’ve even heard some people say an older one was better.
