Kingman Daily Minor, 12/22/10
“Would make a great gift.”
Boston Globe, 1/16/11
"Sharpen your pencils and open your sketchbook; your teacher is waiting.”
Infodad.com, 1/20/11
“The book offers a set of valuable introductory lessons in putting what you see—in the real world or your mind’s eye—down on paper.”
Midwest Book Review, February 2011
“A must for anyone who wants to pursue art but doesn’t know where to start.”
Deseret News, 2/26/11
“Kistler provides detailed instructions and tips that take the mystery out of making simple drawings that look good. He also uses a sense of humor and encouraging words to help.”
Sacramento Book Review, April/May 2011
“Kistler’s approach is light and fun, and rather than overwhelming with technical terminology and intimidating concepts, he instead starts you out putting pencil to paper. Within the first few pages of the book, you are already well on your way…The approach presented in this book works so well because you get instant results, which inspire you to continue with the process.”Book Description

This review is from: You Can Draw in 30 Days: The Fun, Easy Way to Learn to Draw in One Month or Less (Paperback)
Before I had this book I could only draw stick people, and not very good ones at that. I eagerly worked through the lessons, and felt immediately successful, leaving me wanting more.

This review is from: You Can Draw in 30 Days: The Fun, Easy Way to Learn to Draw in One Month or Less (Paperback)
I have tried many, many learn to draw books. They either start off too hard, or start off simple enough but move ahead too quickly.This book was perfect. It assumes you can't draw and starts off very simple. Each lesson has a lesson challenge at the end to encourage you to play around with what you have learned. You can do the lesson in a day or take several days. What I really like about this book is that each lesson builds on the last lesson 'gradually'. It also encourages you to use your imagination and explore other possibilities with your new knowledge.
