I have always loved art and wanted to learn to draw. I love what minds can create with just a pencil or a pen. I love collecting hand-drawn art. I have a rather large collection of sketch cards I have collected over the years. You can see more about what I love about my hobby here.
Do you know any young budding artists or maybe someone like me who might like to learn how to draw? Then the following selection of books might be a great start.
This is something I want to do on my own as well, learn to draw. I have always wanted to learn how to draw ambulances as I was a paramedic for 24 years.

Each daily exercise is broken down with step-by-step diagrams, making the process easy to understand. You’ll learn to draw items from everyday life, like food and clothing, as well as seasonal images including snowmen and pumpkins. We have also included inspiring project photos to show you how to incorporate the doodles into greeting cards, calendars, invitations, gift wrap, and more!

These are all great books to give or receive. I think most people love art and as children, loved to draw. My kids would have loved these books when they were younger. I think they’d love them now!
My younger son loves to sketch but has periods where he loses patience easily. These books look like they would help encourage his drawing ability further. Thanks for sharing.
I used to draw a whole lot, it was a passion. I totally lost that when I developed Parkinsons. So if you see typos, thats whats happening. Look like great books though.
My daughter loves the draw. She’s pretty good but this would help her learn to draw a few more things and put her own little spin on them!!
These are wonderful! I’m always wanting to hone in my drawing skills (it doesn’t come as naturally for me as it does for some.) These would be so helpful for that.
I took 4 years of art classes in high school and barely can draw a stick figure lol. However, my two sons are so talented and I love that they enjoy drawing so much. This book would be perfect to get for myself and others who haven’t quite learned how to draw.
I would like something like this!
I am a horrible artist–seriously horrible. I used to be good…in the 4th grade. I may have to pick up some skills from one of these books. HAHA!
I can’t draw at all..and will never try…buy this will make fantastic gifts for the little ones
I would love to know how to draw as my daughter is an amazing artist and I can’t even draw a stick figure nicely .lol
I would love to learn how to draw so I will definitely be checking these books out.
Get the kids started in drawing as soon as they can hold the crayons.
This would be the perfect Christmas gift for my goddaughter. She loves to draw.
It’s great to have some inspiring prompts while drawing
These are too fun!! I love that they encourage you to be creative every day! Something I think we lack as we get so busy from day to day!
