Description
The representation of the human form is one of the most widespread and enduring subjects in both art and sculpture. Here, accomplished artist and author Giovanni Civardi draws on his unique combination of anatomical knowledge and artistic skill to present the nude in a broad range of poses, providing expert instruction on drawing and painting techniques using various media; colouring the skin and rendering the human form. These sections are followed by an extensive gallery of poses, each accompanied by a detailed commentary in which the anatomical points of interest are discussed, and ends by guiding the reader through the transition from drawing to sculpture. Clearly written and accessible, this highly informative, in-depth study of the human form will appeal to artists of all abilities. ISBN:9781844486014
