Drawing on the Right Side of the Brain is the world’s most widely used drawing instruction book. Whether you are a professional, a student or enjoy art as a hobby it provides a different way of seeing. Discover greater confidence and a deeper artistic perception of the world around you (and how to capture it in your drawing). This new edition includes updated research on brain plasticity and the significance of right-brain learning. A new chapter on the five basic perceptual skills of drawing (seeing edges, nega-tive spaces, perspective and proportion, lights and shadows, and the gestalt), new exercises to help your perception “cross over” from the dominant left brain mode to the right.

Reviews for Drawing on the Right Side of the Brain: A Course in Enhancing Creativity and Artistic Confidence: The Definitive 4th Edition

Think you can't draw? You absolutely can. Buy a copy of Drawing on the Right Side of the Brain by Betty Edwards (in print since 1979 for good reason) and read it properly - no skipping straight to the exercises - before sitting down with paper and pencil and following instructions. You will quickly amaze and delight yourself. Hands down the best and most life-enhancing thing I've done in lockdown -- India Knight * Sunday Times * Clear, intelligent . . . practical and sensible . . . It is an essential beginning * The Artist * It remains the preeminent book on the subject of drawing for beginners * Psychology Today * Marries neuroscience and art * New York Times * Not only a book about drawing, it is a book about living. This brilliant approach to the teaching of drawing... should not be dismissed as a mere text. It emancipates * LA Times * A guide to enhancing creativity and artistic confidence * Independent * This innovative, landmark book should be required reading for all art students * American Artist * A landmark in drawing tuition * Leisure Painter * I'd recommend the book highly - there's literally no downside * Management Today *
