(Entertainment-NewsWire.com, April 29, 2014 ) Burbank, CA -- The hottest new artists drawing set on Amazon is Artists Solutions' Drawing and Sketching Set for Beginners. Applauded for its quality materials and helpful ebook, the kit has garnered six 5-star reviews and remained in the #1 spot since its launch two weeks ago.
"We're thrilled that so many people are enjoying this set," said Justin Jackson, managing director of Artists Solutions and author of Effortless Drawing: A Beginners' Guide to Being Creative, Conquering Blocks and Learning to Draw Without a Teacher. "The goal of this product is to show beginning artists that they do not need to spend hundreds of dollars on an art class to be creative. With a blank piece of paper and the right tools, they have everything they need to become the next Monet. Our hope is to reach many more artists with this product."
The highlight of the set is the accompanying ebook written by Jackson. Titled "Effortless Drawing," the book takes a zen-like approach to the art of drawing, encouraging students to abandon their textbooks and instead look inside themselves for inspiration.
Jackson also guides readers through the practice of Mindfulness. Originated by Buddhist monks, Mindfulness teaches its practitioners how to stop excessive thinking and live in the present moment. "Effortless Drawing" takes these same monastic principles and applies it to art and creativity.
Also included in the drawing kit are graphite pencils (2B/4B/6B/8B), charcoal pencils (Hard/Medium/Soft), pastels and a sharpener. Initially sold for $15.99, the set is on sale at Amazon for $13.97 for a limited time.
