#1 Place for Craft Supplies, Art Supplies, Artist Materials and Kids Crafts

There is probably no better instructor of the correct rendering of heads, features and faces than George R. Bridgman, who brings to the subject both his expertise as an artist and his 50-year experience as lecturer and teacher at the Art Students League of New York. Throughout the book, he places as much emphasis on perspective and planes as on anatomy. In this way, you'll develop a more precise understanding of each feature, the head and face in general, the relationship between features, and the relationship between a specific feature and the face or head. The finely executed drawings complement the textual material, illustrating all important concepts. Of special value is the author's inclusion of the work of famous portrait artists. Vermeer, Hals, Rembrandt, Reynolds, and Louise Elisabeth LeBrun are the people who made portraiture a master art, and you'll be able to study, up close and at your leisure, the qualities that let their work achieve the status it did. Amost 200 drawings are included. Paperback, 64 pages.
