Synopsis

Profusely illustrated throughout, this guide sets out a structured approach to mastering life drawing techniques, showing how each stage builds logically across the body’s principal areas: trunk, limbs, head and facial features. The descriptive text is supported by scores of drawings contributed by painters, graphic artists, sculptors, art teachers and students, offering a broad range of visual reference.

With 55 figures in colour and 141 in black and white, it is focused on drawing and sketching, and is designed for readers looking to develop their understanding of human anatomy for artistic work.
