From the Watson-Guptill Painting Library
This is one from a series of handy guides and art books, loaded with detailed information and colorful illustrations that make learning to paint easy and fun. Each volume in the series concentrates on a different medium - such as oil painting, water color, acrylic, pastel, or colored pencils and one particular subject: landscape, seascape, still life, the human figure, and portraits, among others.
Each book also has an introductory section offering some theoretical background related to the subject. The subject of this present book, for example, is drawing portraits, and in the introductory section you will look at poses, composition, and lighting as well as creating a likeness. Each volume also describes the techniques used when painting or drawing in the medium the book is concerned with.
Contents:
- Drawing Portraits in All Mediums
- Esther serra draws a portrait of a child
- Miquel Farron draws a portrait in wax crayons
- Joan Sabate draws a portrait in charcoal, sanguine, and white chalk
This book is in excellent, like new condition with just very minimal shelf wear.
