An intimate art form, drawing offers a direct connection to one's imagination; a means of exercising the eye, brain, and the hand; and a way to spark new ideas and resolve pictorial challenges. Culled from the Bowdoin College Museum of Art collection, this volume features 130 exceptional drawings, pastels, watercolors, and collages by such figures as Pablo Picasso, Mary Cassatt, Roy Lichtenstein, Eva Hesse, Joseph Cornell, Paul Klee, and Jacob Lawrence, among many others. While adding insightful commentary on the artists, the texts discuss the timeless appeal of drawing.
