Drawing Lessons from the Great Masters
A book whose sales have not diminished but rather increased dramatically since its publication 45 years ago, this bestselling classic is the ultimate manual of drawing taught by the late Robert Beverly Hale, who’s famed lectures and classes at New York City’s Art Student League captivated artists and art educators from around the world. Faithfully producing and methodically analyzing 100 master drawings—including works of Michelangelo, Leonardo da Vinci, Rodin, Goya, and Rembrandt among others—Hale shows how these artists tackled basic problems such as line, light and planes, mass, position and thrust, and anatomy. With detailed analytical captions and diagrams, every lesson is clearly delineated and illustrated. Throughout, also, is commentary that sheds light on the creative process of drawing and offers deep insight into the unsurpassed achievements of the masters.
SB Human Figure 2
John H. Vanderpoel, an acclaimed artist in his own right, is most renowned for his legacy as an art instructor and figure-drawing expert. This book, which was originally published in 1907, is among the most highly-regarded texts on figure drawing, and is unparalleled in its careful presentation of every fundamental feature of the human body. Former students like Georgia O'Keefe and Frederick Carl Frieseke have attested to Vanderpoel's gift for teaching, and now you too can benefit from his sharp eye and insightful advice. In addition to describing and presenting bodily features and their interactions, this book calls your attention to innumerable subtle points of shading, lighting, curvature, proportion, foreshortening, muscular tension, etc. around the human figure. Vanderpoel also accounts for an array of physical variations across age groups, sexes, and body types, providing examples of each throughout. Rigorous and rewarding, The Human Figure is a complete course in figure drawing. It will teach you to understand the human body so that you can render it accurately and beautifully in your art.

The Artist's Complete Guide to Figure Drawing
Many of us want to learn “how to draw.” But as artist Anthony Ryder explains, it’s much more important to learn what to draw.

When it comes to drawing the human figure, this means letting go of learned ideas and expectation of what the figure should look like. It means carefully observing the interplay of form and light, shape and line, that combine to create the actual appearance of human form. In The Artist’s Complete Guide to Figure Drawing, amateur and experienced artists alike are guided toward this new way of seeing and drawing the figure with a three-step drawing method.
