"Richard Box explores line, tone and color with numerous step-by-step illustrations and many finished drawings. Taking his inspiration from nature, he shows how to interpret subjects in a personal and individual way -- from drawing trees in the landscape to representing the beauty of a mass of poppies and delphiniums."-- Back cover.
