Use a single continuous line to make beautiful art, all in 15 minutes or less! This interactive instructional book includes space for you to practice directly on the pages as you learn.

Professional artist Heinke Nied has perfected the quick one-line drawing technique and teaches it to art students in her native Germany. Now she brings the technique first made famous by Pablo Picasso to English-speaking artists in 15-Minute Drawing: One-Line Drawing. Included in the book are:
 

• A review of necessary tools and materials
• Instruction on how to use pen and ink
• Drawing techniques
• Step-by-step drawing projects that include florals, plants, portraits, objects, and much more
• An inspirational gallery

The easy-to-follow projects require only a pen or pencil, so they’re very transportable and fun to do wherever you like to draw.

Additionally, one-line drawing is a calming, meditative process that will appeal to all artists, whether you’re a beginner or just looking for a relaxing creative experience. Grab your pen and paper, and learn to draw in a single continuous line!

Books in the 15-Minute Series are perfect primers for beginning artists who want to learn the basics. Designed to be used as artist notebooks, these interactive workbooks include prompts and exercises that allow beginning artists to test out their skills directly inside the book.
