Bravo!, 7 May 2002
By Vince - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Complete Life Drawing Course (Quarto Book) (Paperback)
Wonderfully done! Starts out with basic anatomy and proportions and shows how these translate in a moving figure. Large clear photos cover both male and female anatomy. The majority of the book is then dedicated to teaching you to develop your own style through various media and then critique your work. A brilliant book for both beginning and intermediate artists. Would be cheap at twice the price. A definate must have!

concise and informative, 6 April 2003
By amie "amie" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Complete Life Drawing Course (Quarto Book) (Paperback)
It presents a lot of information very succintly. The book begins with a section on the human body: bones, muscles, movements and balance and progresses into 8 lessons on learning the basics of catching the nude form. It then provides 8 lessons on various ways to draw light (including a couple that have been covered in a basic design class I am taking), 8 lessons in picture making, and additional projects to try.I have also been attending a figure drawing group, and have found the instruction contained herein is invaluable to understanding what 'information' is needed for short poses and long poses, and all of the ways one can accurately capture the essence of the human form.

A great how to book for figures and life drawing, 28 Nov 2001
By A Customer - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Complete Life Drawing Course (Quarto Book) (Paperback)
I wish I'd found this book before I'd bought other, less complete and helpful ones! This book shows techniques and all media and is a bargain! I was glad I got it to review before I took a figure drawing class because it helped me to do much better.
Listmania!
