Drawing Figures: A practical guide for artists

For any artist it is essential to be able to convey figures, whether in detail or in an impressionistic or abstract form. Drawing Figures guides the burgeoning artist through the techniques of constructing believable shapes by examining the composition of figures and how to create textures and poses, as well as emotion and feeling through the look of facial features. For any student of art, at whatever level, this is an excellent companion to practising the skills involved in this aspect of the subject.
