The essential guide for every artist who draws the human figure!

This compact, portable book offers a distinctive way of looking at the human body for artists to study and apply in their drawings. Artist and teacher Michel Lauricella breaks the body down into simple shapes and volumes, providing deep insight for artists of every discipline while stimulating the imagination and sharpening observation skills. Instead of the conventional approach of memorizing a library of poses, Lauricella focuses on mastering this small set of forms, which can then be combined and adapted to build the more intricate and varied shapes and positions of the living body.

Designed for artists at every stage, from beginners to professionals, this convenient, pocket-sized book will help ignite your imagination and creativity. Whether you're drawn to figure drawing, fine art, fashion design, game design, or comics and manga, you'll find this useful book packed with practical insights.

(Publisher's Note: This book has an "exposed" binding. This is deliberate, allowing the book to lie flat while you draw.)
