Drawing with Pen and Ink

Drawing with Pen and Ink

Henry Clarence Pitz, Arthur Leighton Guptill

About this book

2021 Reprint of the 1961 Edition. Copiously Illustrated. Facsimile of the original edition and not reproduced with Optical Recognition Software. Arthur L. Guptill's Drawing With Pen and Ink has been a landmark in the literature of ink technique for many years. The volume has gone through many printings and reached many thousands of students. It has been out of print for a number of years because the plates had become worn, and a sharp reprint was no longer possible. Originally published in 1928, this 1961 printing has been edited to reflect the changes in taste and interest that transpired between 1928 & 1961. A number of chapters have been combined; several, covered in other books, have been dropped; two, The Pen Combined with Other Mediums and Pen and Ink in Illustration, have been entirely rewritten; and a short concluding chapter has been added. The greater part of Arthur Guptill's explanatory drawings as well as a good many examples of work by other artists have been retained. To this has been added almost a hundred examples of newer work. In short, this is a new and updated edition of this classic work.
