Working on your own, rather than in a class or with a group of fellow enthusiasts, means you have no one to critique your work but yourself. Countless resources can show you where things might be going wrong, yet evaluating your own art can still feel daunting. This companion to the bestselling Art Fundamentals (2nd ed.) gives you the understanding, structure, and practical answers you need to review and strengthen your own work. Where the first book dealt with shape and light, color, perspective and depth, composition, and anatomy, Art Fundamentals: Theory in Practice teaches you to judge how successfully you've applied those basics, pinpoint weaknesses, and correct them. Experienced artists show the common ways the fundamentals break down and how to recognize those issues in your own pieces. They explain not just how to make improvements, but how to tell whether a revision is genuinely better. To help you grow past the basics and elevate your art, the book also explores how to bring emotion, atmosphere, and narrative into your work. Case studies follow professional artists as they critique their own pieces. Keep this book close at hand as you draw and paint, and use it to keep evaluating, refining, and building your skills until your art reaches new heights.
