Book Description

The ultimate guide to drawing pen-and-ink flowers, foliage, trees, water and landscapes with clarity and confidence by master artist, David Morales H.

This stunning, practical guide covers both still-life and landscape drawing, and encourages beginner and intermediate artists to slow down, observe more closely and discover a richer connection to the natural world through drawing.

This is a highly anticipated follow-up to David’s popular book, Pen and Ink Drawing Techniques, and his hallmark approach is here again: warm, achievable instruction that encourages hands on exploration.

  • WORK AT DIFFERENT SCALES: The book progresses through three distances close up nature, intermediate views and sweeping landscapes each section offering clear, visual explanations, step by step demonstrations and practical exercises. Progress from observing and capturing the tiniest details, such as the structure and texture of a leaf, to working on a larger scale and learning how to simplify complex natural scenes.
  • PRACTISE YOUR TECHNIQUE: You’ll learn how to observe proportion and value, use light and shadow to create depth, and choose the right linework: hatching, cross hatching, scribbling, woven textures and diluted ink, to capture everything from fine botanical details to atmospheric forest scenes.
  • HONE YOUR CREATIVE SKILLS: Short exercises reinforce technique; creative prompts inspire consistency; and project based guidance helps you build complex compositions and develop a personal style. With over 200 illustrations and examples, the book makes nature drawing approachable for all skill levels.
