Mark Kistler, one of the most popular and prominent painting instructors in the world, has long been the host of the popular American show "Mark Kistler's Imagination Station." His first book, "You Can Draw in 30 Days," published in 2011, was awarded the "Emmy Award," one of the most prestigious cultural awards for outstanding television programming and achievements in the television industry. It has become so popular that it has become a big bestseller all over the world. This time, Mr. Kistler has further evolved the previous book as a "super-short 30-minute version", which condenses all the "Kistler method" into one book "A book that anyone can draw in 30 minutes-only. "4 steps" will make your picture surprisingly good! ] Was published.See the photos in this article

This book, which is "easy to understand," "friendly," and "full of humor," is the first Japanese translation that Mr. Kistler has been waiting for. .. What is the "Kistler method" that "anyone can draw a picture in 30 minutes!" While re-editing the contents of this book, I will explain "the secret tricks of drawing" good pictures "that are not taught at school". ■ "Bias" makes painting difficult !? What do you think about "drawing a picture"?

As I have been teaching many adults and children how to draw, I have noticed that many people find it difficult to draw. For example, "staring at a plate full of fruits for hours" or "sketching at a museum for almost half a day". But in reality, it doesn't take a lot of time or a specific place to be able to draw! I wanted to convey this to many people, so I thought of the "Kistler-style 30-minute method" as a "practical method for drawing pictures in a blink of an eye."

In my "30-minute method", "small tricks" for drawing "smart, quick, and beautiful" often appear. Perhaps it's a method that wasn't taught during school art time, or a method that has been described as an "evil way." However, I think that the teaching method that has been taken for granted until now requires tremendous efforts in childhood, and in the end, I hate drawing. Rather than that, I think that having the experience of "drawing for myself" using a simple "small trick" and grasping the "knack of drawing" will motivate you to repeat creative activities and lead to improvement. It is. Let's take a closer look at the Kistler-style "small tricks".
