Riding on the wave of adult colouring that inspired a generation of budding casual artists, Mary Phan's sketching workshops have had an incredible reception by makers who are looking for a new creative outlet. In The Artful Sketch, she shares the exclusive secrets from these elite workshops with 15 detailed, fully illustrated tutorials. In each sketch, Mary walks readers through the basics, from using a ruler and pencil to sketch out the basic shape, to adding details like shadows, using a black pen to highlight the final sketch and adding colour to bring it to life. By the end of each tutorial, readers will have a professional-level work of art that they'll be proud to share as a gift, send as a card, post online or hang on their wall. The tutorials are arranged by popular themes such as a dessert station with individual tutorials for an elaborate cake and hanging dessert bar; patisserie with a gorgeous storefront and window frame; and seasonal mantle with a basic fireplace mantle and designs for each season of the year. With an emphasis on luxury, abundant beauty and Mary's calm encouragement, this book will inspire readers to relax into a blissful state of creative joy while they draw. The book will also feature styled photographs of the sketches. Fans of adult colouring books, calligraphy and hand lettering won't want to miss this! This book has more than 40 step-by-step illustrated tutorials, and 20 photographs of styled sketches.
