Dive into figure painting with this fresh take on capturing the
human form in watercolour.Painter Leo Crane and art model Roy
Joseph Butler explore how to interpret the gestures and movements
of the figure through the language of paint. Through a range of
exercises, they show how to work with the fluidity and immediacy of
watercolour to create lively paintings that are bursting with
character and narrative possibility.With experience in both fine
art and animation, they share tips on bringing life to the figure,
and encourage you to discover a liberating and enjoyable approach
to paint. Packed with techniques, exercises and step-by-step
demonstrations, the book covers: *The Figure: Observing the human
figure and working with life models. *Watercolour: Materials,
tools, techniques and colour theory. *Speed: Capturing movement and
painting at speed, with two-minute studies. *Gesture: Poses,
sequences and conveying expression. *Story: Creating mood, context,
composition and narrative. *Beyond the Figure: Bringing human
energy and movement to still life, animals and landscapes. *From
the models: Life model case studies.Paintings by Leo feature
throughout to demonstrate the working process through to finished
product. With a focus on the dynamic exchange between artist and
subject, speed, gesture and story, this book will appeal to artists
looking anew at life painting and who are eager to capture the
essence of character in movement.
