A revised and expanded edition of the classic drawing-instruction book that has sold more than 2,500,000 copies.
When Drawing on the Right Side of the Brain was first published in 1979, it hit the New York Times bestseller list within two weeks and stayed there for more than a year. In 1989, when Dr. Betty Edwards revised the book, it went straight to the Times list again. Now Dr. Edwards celebrates the twentieth anniversary of her classic book with a second revised edition.
Over the last decade, Dr. Edwards has refined her material through teaching hundreds of workshops and seminars. Truly The New Drawing on the Right Side of the Brain, this edition includes:
* the very latest developments in brain research;
* new material on using drawing techniques in the corporate world and in education;
* instruction on self-expression through drawing;
* an updated section on using color; and
* detailed information on using the five basic skills of drawing for problem solving.
Translated into thirteen languages, Drawing on the Right Side of the Brain is the world's most widely used drawing-instruction guide. People from just about every walk of life--artists, students, corporate executives, architects, real estate agents, designers, engineers--have applied its revolutionary approach to problem solving. The Los Angeles Times said it best: Drawing on the Right Side of the Brain is "not only a book about drawing, it is a book about living. This brilliant approach to the teaching of drawing . . . should not be dismissed as a mere text. It emancipates."Editorial Descriptions are usually submitted by the manufacturers, publishers and authors. Contact us if you are one of them, and wish to change the above description. |

This is the type of book which you learn the basics of drawing from, as well as fundamental drawing philosophy which helps you to get into yourself and to release your full drawing potential..through it i was able to convince myself that i 'know how to draw' just as well as the rest of talented people, and i succeded..the drawing isn't reserved for talented people only..the talent only helps you to learn drawing techniques more quickly..

This book is a useful guide to train the eye (or the right side of your brain) rather than the hand. A good book to train your perception to put things on paper.

When I bought this book I was sure that I coldn't draw. But a friend of mine told about this book and how it helped him start drawing. he showed me his paintings. So I decided to give the book a try. It's marvelous! It works! If you want to learn how to draw, and have no experience, then this book is for you.

This book exercises a little known or understood portion of the brain - the right side. As you complete the exercises you can even feel it working. This opens up many creative opportunities in other aspects of your life - improving your problem solving skills overall.
