Drawing Masterclass - 100 Creative Techniques of Great Artists

Drawing Masterclass is a book that analyzes some of the world's most significant drawings and explains how they were created and what can be learned from them.

The book is divided into seven genres – including figures, landscapes, portraits, and abstraction – and examines the work of various artists through carefully selected pieces. It focuses on key drawing elements such as light and shadow, form, composition, and space. Among the artists represented is Lucian Freud, whose works are included as examples.

Each artist is presented through a major work, a brief biography, and an overview of the materials, techniques, and ideas behind their creations. The goal is to present drawing as a human practice rather than something unattainable, and to provide insight into both the processes and thoughts behind the works.
