Description

Drawing as a vital intellectual and artistic practice is explored in this generously illustrated collection of essays. The Royal Drawing School brings together reflections on the craft from practicing artists, teachers, and writers, offering inspiration and instruction for those seeking to engage with the world through drawing. The book is divided into three sections: Studio Space, Open Space, and Inner Space, each comprehensively illustrated with a wealth of drawings, prints, and paintings. Short "In Practice" pieces provide practical advice on techniques such as making oak-gall ink, while personal accounts offer insights into artistic development. This collection passionately advocates for drawing as deeply personal and essential, making it an inspiring companion for artists and aspiring artists looking to explore new ways of thinking about their practice.
