Double Gold Star for Mark


who sent me
Bridgman's Complete Guide to Drawing from Life


It arrived home yesterday evening. It really is full of exactly the sort of thing I've been trying to find. Full of poetic explanations and notes on what is involved, what you have to remember to think about, when drawing the human figure. Balance, rhythm, distribution of masses and details about the body's mechanisms.

The illustrations are also a blast. They are a combination of Baroque and superhero comic books.

Thanks Mark, and all my readers for ongoing support of this project.
