Produktbeschreibung

You've captured a moment in time-now learn to draw it! Discover the ins and outs of using a very modern tool to help with a timeless art. Photographs are valuable reference tools that most artists use. Complex subjects are generally easier to draw from photos-plus other factors, such as weather, movement, and lighting, can make drawing from life nearly impossible. Children and animals, for example, rarely sit still when you want them to, making it much easier to draw them from photographs. However, many beginning artists aren't confident in their picture-taking skills, or they don't know how to translate their photos into drawings. That's where this innovative book comes in! In no time, beginning artists will be drawing animals, people, landscapes, and still lifes that look real enough to reach out and touch!

Her work has been published by the American Museum of Natural History, and by major textbook companies such as Holt, Rinehart, and Winston. After studying portraiture with acclaimed artists such as Nelson Shanks and John Sanden, commissioned portrait work soon became an important part of her artwork.
