From dust jacket "Imagine an intense weekend workshop where nine professional artists gather to teach you what they know best about the art of figure drawing. This book offers you just that - a course in the basic components that make up figure drawing. Among these crucial elements are those of line, light and shade, composition, gesture, expression, and movement. Also included are sections on selecting and posing models, capturing a likeness, and composing figures in groups...."
wonderful book that has many different artists giving you their take on drawing. there are examples of their works that let the style shine thru. I was able to better understand what I like and what I am not as excited about. worth a look.
