Fun fact: I attended my first life drawing class not long before I found this eARC. The class was eye-opening and although my drawing skills are basic at best, I had a lot of fun and it got me thinking about how to look at a model and transfer what I see onto paper.
Chris Legaspi's Life Drawing for Artists was exactly what I needed to answer those questions, plus other questions I haven't thought of yet. Starting off with the basics such as material and the theoretical aspect of why we draw from life, the book then talks about shapes and gestures, how to find lines and how to put shapes together. Legaspi talked about how to work with light and shadow, before moving on to how to get the best out of your very brief one/two-minute poses and how to work on 20-minute poses.
Useful to enlighten the process for newbies and hone the art for old hats, this is an essential step-by-step guide into the world of life drawing.
