Sketching The most Joyous Hobby By Percy V. Bradshaw (Principal of the Press Art School) > “I want to tell you how much I am enjoying the Lessons. It is with a real pleasure I look forward to my evenings, and I feel I must thank you for bringing me in touch with such a happy medium for my spare time.” This comment (from a Bolton Pupil of mine) describes the joy of Sketching from the Beginner’s point of view. No finer tribute could be paid to the character of my Courses than the continued receipt of letters like this from men and women of all ages who are learning to Sketch just for the joy and interest alone. This School is essentially a Press Art School. The standard I set is the acid test standard—the production of work which will sell. On this basis my Courses have proved outstandingly successful. I have trained leading Artists in all branches of Illustration and Commercial Art; my Pupils’ work appears in every illustrated publication of note. And yet it is as a Hobby of great joy that Sketching, as I teach it, makes its widest appeal. Quite apart from the possibilities of Sketching as a career or as a source of additional income, for sheer pleasure alone there is no Hobby to compare with it. If Sketching interests you, send for my Prospectus. Read what my Pupils themselves say about the training they have received. See the kind of work which my Pupils produce—even for the first Lesson Exercises. Go through the remarkable list of famous Artists I have trained. When you see what I have done for others, some of them absolute beginners, you can realise what I may do for you. If you send a copy of the clever Bathing study (by a former Pupil) or preferably an original sketch, I will send you a free, helpful criticism as well as the Prospectus. A p.c. brings the Prospectus alone. Percy V. Bradshaw, Press Art School, (Dept.
