The photographs in this publication, mostly culled from museum collections, are superb visual renderings of the artwork they represent. It is hard to imagine that any visitor could get any closer to see them better. The author’s discussion of each piece is all encompassing, scholarly, and easy to understand

The Drawing Breakthrough Kit breaks down the feeling of being overwhelmed when drawing from life by breaking the images down to straight, curved and elliptical lines in various lengths. Picking up a pencil to draw can be very intimidating for the first time artist and I find Hastings approach to be the right amount of coaxing and encouragement to get over that initial hump.
