Bewertungen und Rezensionen

I think what Mark Crilley tried to achieve with this book was to inspire and motivate people - besides teaching them the drawing essentials and basics of course. And I must admit, this was by far the best book about drawing: Beautiful, emotional, motivational, inspirational, educational. He did not just present the bare facts, he wrapped them up in a story with an incredibly moving ending and epilouge. Thanks Mark Crilley. This was worth every little cent.
