Learn how to critique your own art — focus on the fundamentals, identify problems, then fix them — for results that advance your technique to the next level. Richly annotated images, in-depth tutorials, and striking before-and-after results show how the fundamentals can elevate your art from good to great.

Experts reveal how the fundamentals can go wrong and how to spot problems in one’s own work. They not only explain how to improve an image, but also how to assess if the revised version is successful. To improve beyond the fundamentals and make truly memorable images, subjects such as infusing your work with emotion, mood, and storytelling are also explored. Learn about the self-improvement journeys of professional artists as they critique their own work and remake old portfolio pieces in in-depth tutorial case studies.

This is a book to keep by your side while drawing and painting, allowing you to continually critique, fix, and improve your skills and take your art to the next level.
