About this product

Product Information

This instructional book approaches the figure organically, showing readers how to observe its basic shapes and subtle nuances through practical exercises and lessons in the art of seeing with a painter s eye. Step-by-step demonstrations in contour drawing teach how to capture the overall essence of the human form, then lessons in gesture drawing emphasize the body s linear rhythms in various poses. Painting techniques progress from silhouette to three-dimensional forms through clever uses of light, shadow, color, and value.

Item arrived fast, well-packaged and in excellent condition, and was exactly as described. More than that, communication was good, and when I had a problem paying immediately due to a computer/server issue, I explained to the seller that there would be a delay and they were courteous in the extreme and very patient. I'm extremely happy with this seller.

I paid less than £20 for a book I haven’t been able to find online for less than £50, and the shipping was FREE from the US to the UK. I took a gamble buying this book considering the price, the fact it was listed as “used” and the photos advertised. I was expecting to receive a book that showed at least minor signs of wear and tear, if not major signs, but the book arrived today less than 2 weeks of me ordering in perfect condition and still sealed?! WOW. Amazing seller, thank you so much!!!

  • Natural, bold and free

    The book is about rendering the figure in watercolor and it has six parts: 1. Contour and gesture Drawing; 2 Painting Techniques and color; 3 From Silhouette to Three-dimensional form; 4 Facial Features; 5 Figure painting demonstrations; 6 Composing and designing figure paintings. So, it is very complete, very welll written and the paintings are superbe, and the exercises easy to follow. Good results, though, need lots of pratice :). What I like the most is the freedom and looseness, but pay attention: Like Richard Schmid use to say, and Iquote, “Looseness should describe how a painting looks, not how it was done.”.
