review:
'Portfolio: Beginning Pen & Ink: Tips and techniques for learning to draw in pen and ink' by Desarae Lee is a drawing instruction book with some pretty interesting illustrations by the author.

The book begins with a discussion of different types of pens and materials and drawing surfaces. Then basic techniques are run through pretty quickly. From line work to shaiding and perspective. The book ends with a series of projects to apply lessons learned.

It's a pretty brief book and a quick read. I don't think that's necessarily a bad thing, but if you are looking for more in-depth instruction, you might want to look elsewhere. The illustrations are all by the author and feature large animals and victorian type designs. I liked them, but they seem pretty intricate to try to draw as a beginner.

I received a review copy of this ebook from Quarto Publishing Group - Walter Foster, and NetGalley in exchange for an honest review. Thank you for allowing me to review this ebook.
