A showcase of pencil works by a master of the medium, this volume explains Paul Calle's process and provides a fantastic gallery of demonstrations and inspiration for artists at intermediate to advanced levels. Calle -- whose clients have included NASA, the National Park Service, Ladies' Home Journal, and the U.S. Postal Service -- explores pencil drawing as a serious medium rather than just a preliminary to painting.
Starting with a brief history of the development of the pencil and its use by celebrated artists of the past, Calle discusses tools and materials before introducing a series of demonstrations. Lavishly illustrated chapters examine form, figure drawing, sketching, drawing from nature, perspective, and more, including tips on doing trial renderings of key sections of a picture, making corrections, handling perspective and composition, and using photography and other drawing aids.
This new edition brings The Pencil, Calle's most defining book on working in graphite, back in to circulation after 25 years. It features revisions and updates by the author's son Chris Calle, who is also an accomplished artist and illustrator. Students and teachers as well as serious beginners who want to draw in a realistic style will appreciate this opportunity to sharpen their pencil techniques.

Buyer beware!
Beware not at all a good quality. Screen is made of a very fragile product. Very cheap looking not at all anything I would want in my home. And once you have purchased it basically it is yours because Amazon can't help you because it is a third party seller. Which means you have to work with the seller directly and they want you to send it back to them on your dime to California which would almost cost the same as the purchase price.

Easy to assemble
Pleasing to the eye...Divides the targeted area very nicely and still lets light through. It appears the piece will hold up over time.

Very impressive!
Size: 6 Panel, Size: 6 Panel
I didn't think this screen could possibly be as good as some of the reviews seems to suggest but it had a good rating and seemed like it may be a good match for my needs, which were to create a backdrop for online meetings in my garage/home office. Wow am I surprised by the quality and functionality of this screen. 1) It is really maneuverable due to the two-way hinges. I felt like a kid with a new toy playing with all of the ways you can configure this screen. 2) It's very sturdy and yet light enough to move and store if needed. 3) No weird odors, has a light woody scent, barely noticeable. 4) Its a very high quality screen, beautifully built and very pretty. 5) Its dimensions are as described, a full six foot tall. I spent a lot of time shopping for a screen and am very happy that I chose this one.
