Find out what artists have always known - magnificent art comes from the life all around you, Drawing people is more than just accurately capturing the anatomy and details of the subject. Artists that capture the soul of the model breathe life into the artwork by expressing a mood, idea or emotion that cannot be captured by accurate rendering alone. Life Drawing will give the reader all the tools necessary to draw people accurately and expressively, thus setting it apart from books that teach technique only. A variety of materials (nupastel, charcoal and graphite) will be used to give the intermediate artist a range of options to choose what works best for the subject of each drawing.
