With the aid of easy-to-follow diagrams , the reader discovers the techniques of rendering basic geometric shapes, such as cylinders, cubes and spheres, and is shown how to give visual literacy to representations of innumerable different textures and surfaces, such as glass , water, stonework and fabrics.
