Successful Drawing

Description

The illustrator Andrew Loomis is revered amongst artists for his mastery of drawing technique and his clean, realist style. His hugely influential series of art instruction books have never been bettered and Successful Drawing, the third in Titan's programme of facsimile editions, returns this classic title to print for the first time in decades. For over 60 years Successful Drawing has provided a superb resource covering all the techniques needed to master three-dimensional drawing. From the fundamentals of proportion, placement, perspective, planes and pattern, through a detailed examination of scale and the effects and capture of light, to the mastery of conception, construction, contour, character and consistency, Successful Drawing is filled with step-by-step instruction, professional tips and beautiful illustration. Engaging, witty, and wonderfully executed, this is a masterclass for amateur artists and professional illustrators alike. Review: Add it to your library - Delighted to receive this book. Its a must for every aspiring artist to read if they wish to channalise their efforts in right direction. I had seen some page shots of the book on Pinterest and once I knew the book, I ordered immediately. Loomis has explained all the P's and C's of a successful drawing and how to master it. Review: Nice. - This book would come as the second book in a series by Loomis, first being Figure Drawing For All Its Worth.
