The Sketch by Robert S Oliver


This is awesome book by Robert S oliver published in New York, 1979 is one of my most prized books. Its a great book to flick through and soak in Robert's amazing sketches. It covers all aspects of sketching from line, shape and detail to composition and perspective. I know very little about the author apart from whats written on the blurb which is a shame. I would imagine Robert is retired now after spending many years sketching and teaching Architectural Design at Arizona State University. Some the sketches are reminiscent of Evan Hecox drawings and illustrations, maybe he's got this book stashed away in his studio! Robert S Oliver
