Human Anatomy for the Artist

Littlehampton Book Services Ltd.

The ability to draw the human figure is an essential skill for the trained artist. And for the independent amateur, painter John Raynes’s new book is the equivalent of an art school course. With meticulous renderings of the skeleton and the muscles, he explores how the underlying structures support and give shape to the body. Many of the drawings are shown step-by-step, starting with a photograph of the model and accompanied by a discussion of such issues as balance and motion, light and shadow, composition and volume. Through drawings of different body shapes, from underweight to overweight, both nude and clothed, the student learns how to capture the character as well as the appearance of the subject.

History & Criticism

Batsford

The art of drawing translates between two languages: the language of the eye and the language of line and shading, color and tone. Through the choices the artist makes, a drawing both depicts its subject and makes a statement about it. Building upon these ideas, award-winning instructional author John Raynes offers a course that begins by showing how to render everyday objects (a chair, a vase) and advances in easy steps to the creation of expressive landscapes, portraits, and figure studies. With exercises for exploring shape and volume, perspective and composition, light and texture, he leads the reader on a journey of discovery in a wide range of media from pencil, charcoal, and pastel to watercolor pencil and ink.
