It was SO exciting to see that she had written a book, and I immediately pre-ordered a copy.The content does not disappoint, but the design of the book is terrible. The main text font is tiny, tiny, tiny, and the font of the captions is tinier still. Plus, the typeface itself is very faint*. My vision is decent, but to comfortably read this book, I'm going to need reading glasses or a magnifying device.(I've produced text materials, and the guideline about bolding tiny fonts for readability holds true. Was the publisher trying to save ink by printing so faintly?)Bottom line: Be prepared to need assistive eyewear with this book. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A Great Guide for simplifying the complexed view *by H***T on Reviewed in the United States on November 22, 2020* Often objects or scenery are seen as very complicated. This guide by Suhita Shirokar stresses the importance of simplifying objects into basic components in order to draw them. For me, this is a very important point because I often tend to feel over whelmed by the big picture. Tis approach will be extremely useful as I venture into urban sketching in my community. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great gift for any art lover *by S***S on Reviewed in the United States on November 30, 2020* The book's title is Techniques for Beginners, and I found it to be a little gem. While it's definitely excellent for those who are just starting out in art, I'd say it's a great little guide for any artist at any level. Suhita covers a lot in this little book! It's got excellent examples of finding and really seeing different shapes and getting things down on paper quickly, and then going in and adding detail, to keep a seemingly overwhelming subject from being so very intimidating. She also gives examples of how just about anything can become a subject for one's art, however simple: places, people, things. And she delves into how to spend time seeing and doing contour drawings, fleshing things out with form and shadows, and how to create textures and patterns within images. She touches on relative scale, she gives examples of perspective and how to make sense out of what you are seeing in front of you, and she helps with thinking through composition and the visual paths one takes through a work of art. There are many artists' pieces to enjoy throughout the book, and good examples of her discussions to help you comprehend what she's describing. I will return to this book often to be inspired and revved up for making art! ## Frequently Bought Together - The Urban Sketching Handbook Techniques for Beginners: How to Build a Practice for Sketching on Location (Volume 11) - The Complete Urban Sketching Companion - The Urban Sketching Handbook 101 Sketching Tips: Tricks, Techniques, and Handy Hacks for Sketching on the Go (Volume 8) --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.hr/products/191904529-the-urban-sketching-handbook-techniques-for-beginners-how-to-build](https://www.desertcart.hr/products/191904529-the-urban-sketching-handbook-techniques-for-beginners-how-to-build) --- *Product available on Desertcart Croatia* *Store origin: HR* *Last updated: 2026-07-07*
