  • Pencil Drawing by Gene Franks (1990, Paperback)

    Item was as stated, no problems with condition of book. Very satisfied.Item was used in teaching a 10 year old boy how to draw with pencil. This book was helpful in every ways, showing how to use the pencils, kinds of pencils, content showed how to start a drawing to completion of subject matter.
