The New Drawing on the Right Side of the Brain book by Betty Edwards

The New Drawing on the Right Side of the Brain by Betty Edwards is a classic guide to learning how to draw by changing the way you see. Edwards argues that drawing skill is less about having a natural artistic talent and more about learning to observe shapes, proportions, spaces, and relationships accurately.

The book introduces a series of practical exercises designed to help readers move beyond symbolic representations of objects and develop more perceptual ways of seeing. Edwards explores concepts such as negative space, proportion, perspective, light and shadow, and the relationship between observation and visual expression. The exercises are designed for beginners as well as artists who want to strengthen their observational drawing skills.

Accessible and practical, The New Drawing on the Right Side of the Brain has become one of the best-known books on learning to draw. It encourages readers to approach drawing not simply as an artistic activity, but as a skill of observation that can be developed through deliberate practice. Buy in Kenya with fast delivery.
