Figure Drawing in ProportionEasy to Remember, Accurate Anatomy for Artists
Michael Massen
Traditional methods of measuring body proportions rely on the abstract memorization of convoluted fractions or multiples of the human head. But artists
shouldn’t have to be mathematicians. Figure Drawing in Proportion introduces a better, more intuitive, less intimidating way to get proportions right. It starts
with the revelation that—despite the wonderful variety of bodies in this world—the human figure has standard size relationships artists can build upon for accurate renderings. Ideal for any level of artist, this practical approach to
proportions makes figure drawing more approachable and more rewarding. PAPERBACK • T2894 • reTail: $24.99 • your price: $21.25
Creative Colored PencilEasy and Innovative Techniques for Beautiful PaintingGary Greene
Gary Greene brings the first comprehensive book dedicated to teaching colored pencil as a liquid medium. Through the course of 12 fully stepped out painting projects and 30 technique lessons, you’ll learn three distinct painting methods: using water-soluble colored pencil, using wax and oil-based colored pencil with solvents, and using wax-based colored pencil with a heated surface to achieve the finished work you desire. Approach colored pencil like never before to achieve an unlimited variety of creative possibilities, from the painterly style of acrylics and oils, to the loose watercolor look of water-soluble colored pencils, and everything in between.PAPERBACK • T3610 • reTail: $22.99 • YOuR PRICE: $19.50
