Pocket Art: Portrait Drawing is a wonderful addition to the library of any budding portrait artist. The step-by-step guide covers everything from face shape and alignment to advice on tackling specific features. The handy pocket size will make it easy to carry for artists on the go. I found the section on approaching hair particularly beneficial, as that is the aspect of portraiture I always find hardest to master. I will definitely be giving Henly's technique a try in my next drawing. The only thing I might have liked to have seen included was a little more on shading, but otherwise, this feels like a very complete compact guide. 4.5 stars.
