Book Review of Drawing on the Right Side of the Brain

Drawing on the Right Side of the Brain

Helpful Score: 2


Of all the books I've read, I feel this is the one that probably had the most tangible effect on my life. I came across it quite by accident -- I've never been interested in art or drawing and never took art in school. This is not what attracted me to the book. However, despite it's title, the book is really about Right/Left Brain functioning. I found the author's journey fascinating -- how she stumbled on her theory -- and then how she tested it. The book includes exercises that had me rendering drawings that appeared to be from one who had at least a modicum of instruction. I highly recommend this book.
