Awesome! This book is so well thought out and put together. Its clear and actually gives examples that you can follow. I love how she included some of her work as well which is always so beautiful and inspiring! I felt like giving up and this book reminded me that its a process and that im harder on myself then I need be. Just a little clear direction is often all we need to get back on track! Thanks Pypah! <3

5.0 out of 5 stars Every new artist should have this book in their library

j.p. · July 29, 2025

I've ordered over 30 art teaching books. This one is amazing! The instruction, examples, process is great. I recommend this for anyone who like me wants to draw but is missing something. I love it! I really enjoy this as a book. The graphics are real, this gives the student the ability to go slowly, to pay close attention to develope a style of their own. It's like having a personal art teacher. I carry it everywhere.

5.0 out of 5 stars Fantastic book for facial drawing...highly recommended!!

L.L. · September 7, 2025

...and I own, and have read a TON of these books (about how to draw faces or facial features). Some are better than others, but drawing faces is my main passion, so I try to read all I can on facial or portrait drawing.THIS is the one you should buy, whether you're a beginner, or just want some more face inspiration!It has very clear directions, giving you all of the tools you need to begin to practice drawing faces. Starting with a pencil and learning shading this way was the best thing I did to get some skills down before jumping into any kind of color...at the time I didn't know if it was right, I was a beginner making stabs in the dark (still am)!

5.0 out of 5 stars I never say this but ‘BUY IT!’ 🫶🏼

I’d give this more stars if I could! It’s just what I’ve been looking for! It’s easy to follow, got loads of great examples and learning opportunities. I love how it includes styles for a variety of ethnicities too! At last a book that encourages self discovery, enabling you to develop your own style. I LOVE it!
