Can drawing -- sound, honest representation of the world as the eye sees it, not tricks with the pencil or a few effects -- be learned from a book? One of the most gifted draftsmen, who is also one of the greatest art critics and theorists of all time, answers that question with a decided Yes. He is John Ruskin, the author of this book, a classic in art education as well as a highly effective text for the student and amateur today.The work is in three parts, cast in the form of letters to a student, successively covering First Practice, Sketching from Nature, and Colour and Composition. Starting with the bare fundamentals (what kind of drawing pen to buy; shading a square evenly), and using the extremely practical method of exercises which the student performs from the very first, Ruskin instructs, advises, guides, counsels, and anticipates problems with sensitivity. The exercises become more difficult, developing greater and greater skills until Ruskin feels his reader is ready for watercolors and finally composition, which he treats in detail as to the laws of principality, repetition, continuity, curvature, radiation, contrast, interchange, consistency, and harmony. All along the way, Ruskin explains, in plain, clear language, the artistic and craftsmanlike reasons behind his practical advice -- underlying which, of course, is Ruskin's brilliant philosophy of honest, naturally observed art which has so much affected our aesthetic.
Three full-page plates and 48 woodcuts and diagrams (the latter from drawings by the author) show the student what the text describes. An appendix devotes many pages to the art works which may be studied with profit.

Thick but light wallet with many card holders
Size: One Size, Color: Oxford Black
Similar to my other trifold Tommy Hilfilger wallet that it is replacing that lasted almost 10 years. The leather itself doesn't feel particularly thick and the stitches are just average. There was some glue in the edges of some of the card pockets that needed to be broken up, but the pockets fit cards well otherwise. It is quite thick due to the capability to hold 9 cards in its inner faces + 1 ID card. However, it is quite light. At this price, I think the quality is reasonable.

Tommy quality at a good price
Size: One Size, Color: Red/White/Blue, Size: One Size, Color: Red/White/Blue
I have always like Tommy Hilfiger products. As a young man, it was the clothing brand of choice in my HS years. And years later, I still enjoy anything of this brand I can get. I got some TH towels a year or two ago and they were great. But I digress. This wallet came contained in a premium box.. encased in the same leather that the wallet is crafted out of. And let me tell you, the smell of new leather is such a cozy and welcoming smell. The wallet is stitched well with no sign of any possible unraveling in the near future. The colors are amazing and the leather is soft and pliable. Plus having RFID blocking material within it's core in a plus. It's only bad point.. that it is made in India and not the good ol US of A. But hey, at least it's not China ehh? Very giftable and a very good price for the brand and quality. I would get again.

Works as it should. Magnet is pretty strong so it holds its closed position well. Fits all my cards great. Easy to pull out DL. Overall design looks and feels nice and sturdy. Leather feels great and durable. Cards are easy to access; put in and slide out.
