This classic figure drawing book has been in circulation for more than 30 years and has helped generations of beginning artists learn to master the challenging art of figure drawing. Master illustrator Walt Reed shows you how to reduce complex figures into a variety of basic shapes that are easy to master, helping you to reach your goal of producing lifelike drawings.

Tested through years of classroom use, the principles stressed here bring clear insights into drawing the human form. You'll find a logical, step-by-step method for mastering the construction and proportions of all figure types.

First the basic forms are analyzed the proportions of the various parts and their relations to the total figure. You'll then learn how these parts are connected and how they move and find exercises in drawing the complete figure in any position, engaged in a variety of activities.

Also included are detailed studies of anatomy examining bone and muscle structure plus special instructions for drawing such intricate parts of the body as the head, hands and feet. You'll learn:

  • How relative body proportions change at different ages
  • How bones and muscles affect the surface of the figure
  • How to create many types of faces from the same model
  • How different lighting angles affect facial shadows
  • How to select the most descriptive pose
"Concentrate on this basic form figure until you can do anything you want with it. Draw it in as many positions as possible," Walt Reed says in his introduction. "Practice of this kind will help train your hand and your mind in the proportions, construction, and relationships of the individual forms so that you will never forget them."

Favorite treat of all time for our Maltese pup.
Pattern Name: Lollipop, Size: 0.53 Ounce (Pack of 4)
These are my Maltese dog’s favorite treat. I don’t know if it is the whole combination of shape, taster, tendon location, or that they are from a Turkey, but they are an absolute winner when we have them. Since they are quite expensive, we only get them on occasion. If they were less expensive, even by 10%, I would justify regular purchases of them to myself. I highly recommend them for any size, breed, or reason. They are an exceptionally wonderful treat for my pup. I think I have just found the reason for ordering another order of these Turkey Tendon lollipops for my best friend. Especially since he eats them quite quickly, even though he is only four pounds. And they seem to be quite digestible.

Perfect treat for my Dolcé!
Pattern Name: Bone, Size: 0.53 Ounce (Pack of 4)
My 14 pound Maltipoo LOVES these. It keeps her occupied for a good 30 minutes. Be sure to get the bone-shaped ones because little dogs will choke on the lollipop-shaped ones.
