"What I really think makes Rockman's text so engaging is the quality of the example works and its correlation with the topics I cover. I plan on recommending this text to our department head and also switching to it next semester." -- Ben Willis, Arizona State University"Drawing Essentials is the BEST drawing text on the market considering the information covered, spectrum of concepts, clarity of writing, quality of illustrations, and price. I recommend this to anyone who is looking for a good drawing text." --Treelee MacAnn, Coastal Carolina University"This text is very comprehensive without being overwhelming and provides excellent student work examples for my students to emulate. It hits on all the important topics that are not always covered in drawing texts, including color theory, figure anatomy, and perspective." --Scott Wakefield, Community College of Aurora, "This is one of the more comprehensive and approachable texts I have had the pleasure of working with.
