Figures and Faces: A Sketcher's Handbook (平装) 486437612

Artist, illustrator and teacher Hugh Laidman shows how simple and rewarding it can be to draw two of the most challenging of artistic subjects. His brief review of anatomical structure is followed by detailed illustrations and clear instructions for drawing people of different ages and ethnic groups. Practice sketching and contour drawing are discussed, as is working with charcoal and pastel, and finding and posing models. Unabridged republication of Figures/Faces: A Sketcher's Handbook, originally published by The Viking Press, New York, 1979.
