Resources
The following are resources I've found useful. I usually borrow
books from the
library before purchasing to see if they are helpful for the stage
I'm at. That's true for any subject in life. These qualify for my
personal library.
Books:
Drawing from the Light Within: Keys to Awaken Your Creative Power
by Judith Cornell.
I highly recommend this book as an important addition to any artist's
library. It's the one book that has made the biggest impact on my
art.
The Technical Pen, by Gary Simmons.
An excellent, practical book I refer to often for techniques using
pen and ink.
Drawing in Pen & Ink, by Claudia Nice.
A very talented artist in her own right, Claudia has written and
illustrated many books for artists. She's a delight to learn from.
Optical Illusions for Quilters, by Karen Combs.
A pleasure to peruse and is valuable for artists of any medium.
Drawing on the Right Side of the Brain, by Betty
Edwards.
A course in enhancing creativity and artistic confidence.
Drawing on the Artist Within, by Betty Edwards.
An inspirational and practical guide to increasing your creative
powers.
Miscellaneous
The Pencil
Grip.
Bless this company, for without their pencil grips I wouldn't be able
to do any drawing. They are fat, ergonomically correct, and fit on
the Micron pens I use. I purchase them locally at an educational
supply store, but they are also available online. Just type "the
pencil grip" into your search engine.
