In this companion to his bestselling figure drawing books The Anatomy of Style and Figures from Life, Patrick J. Jones explores the art of capturing the beauty and form of human anatomy using photographic reference. The book's 10 step-by-step chapters are designed to echo Patrick's renowned life drawing workshops, with stunning photographs of posed models taking the place of live models. Readers are invited to draw along with Patrick as he guides them through the drawing stages in detail, demonstrating creative solutions to the pitfalls associated with using photo reference - including distortion, proportion, edges, and shadows. Along the way, he also reveals his creative process and 'art laws', and offers invaluable insights into producing drawings of the human figure with style and grace.
