Dynamic Figure Drawing
Figure drawing is the most essential--and the most difficult--of all skills for the artist to learn. In this book, Bruce Hogarth, one of the founders of the School of Visual Arts in New York, introduces his own revolutionary system of figure drawing, which makes it possible to visualize and accurately render the forms of the human body from every conceivable point of view. 300+ drawings & diagrams. Dynamic Figure Drawing is the most essential -- and the most difficult -- of all skills for the artist to learn. The hardest problem is to visualize the figure in the tremendous variety of poses, which plunge the various forms of the body into deep space and show them in radical foreshortening. Foreshortening itself is, in fact, the single most challenging aspect of figure drawing.
