Title: Animals in colored pencil, drawing learn to draw step by step by debra kauffman yaun
Review: A wonderful easy book on colored pencil medium for a range of ages, truly worthwhile buying as I am new to colored pencils and didn't realise the range of possibilities with this medium. The book pages were easy to follow, and the diagrams very information, I recommend it to anyone at any artistic level.

Title: Maybe not the best for beginners but fun and challenging
Review: This was good for taking you step by step on how to color/shade and to some extent draw. I think this is for a more experienced artist that is more concerned with learning how to shade/color. The author makes a lot of subtle changes that you have to look for in each step. All in all I had fun doing the rooster and I am sure I will try another one.

Review: Il libro ha proposte accattivanti e i progetti, seppure non molto dettagliati, sono abbastanza orientativi per riuscire a realizzarli. Un libro che non deve mancare nella biblioteca di chi pratica l'arte della matita colorata. Si richiede una conoscenza media della materia, un principiante assoluto potrebbe trovare le proposte troppo difficili.
