Dibujar el cuerpo humano

by Peter Boerboom, Tim Proetel, Teresa Martín Lorenzo (Translator)

La representación del ser humano es casi tan antigua como la historia del arte. Bosquejar una figura humana no solo significa capturar su materialidad, sino también atrapar visualmente su motricidad, sus gestos y sus emociones, como si de un pensamiento fugaz se tratara. Plasmar todo esto en una hoja de papel es una habilidad que puede entrenarse y perfeccionarse, y esto es precisamente lo que explican Peter Boerboom y Tim Proetel en este libro: una serie de métodos lúdicos y analíticos que invitan tanto a principiantes como a profesionales a descubrir y a practicar la representación de la figura humana en todas sus vertientes.

A very inspiring book for various abilities and nobody in particular

Nice prompts that could be used as warmups before a figure drawing class or with uncertain beginner artists. This isn’t about perfection: it’s about capturing an idea.

Un manual sencillo y bastante intuitivo sobre dibujar la figura humana. Te da ideas interesantes para agilizar el dibujo y perder el miedo a equivocarte.

Very little instruction with many exercises to work through. I found this quite helpful in my sketching work: how to capture gesture and posture through loose brush strokes.

An interesting book and idea but not my CUP OF TEA.

Finished it and moved on.

I worked through all of these prompts and had a lot of fun doing it. Especially helped me focus on ideas and concepts rather than details
