Summary: small and inexpensive but,....a poor instruction
Review: Gerhard Gollwitzer's "Drawing Step By Step" is small in format, and therefore handy to carry. The cover price is low, so that's a plus; but it seems a rather rambling and confused introduction to drawing for beginners. Some of the basics are there, but then, gee whiz, it's beginning to look like "Well...who hasn't published a HOW-TO-DRAW book?" Besides, this one is so dry and boring. I think that it would be of interest to people that like to watch the dryer-go-round, but ....seriously... It's just a clone of other, equally basic, yet poorly presented HOW-TO material. Was this book desperately needed? It certainly will not be replacing many of the other basic drawing books already in print.
