Drawing the Head for Artists is the definitive modern guide to
drawing the human head and portrait, featuring the classic mediums
and methods of the Old Masters. Written by celebrated portrait
artist and veteran studio instructor Oliver Sin, this richly
informative and beautifully illustrated volume leads readers
step-by-step through his method, from establishing a point of view
to applying the timeless principles for creating an accurate and
expressive likeness. Among the topics covered: Essential Materials
& Techniques:Learn about necessary supplies and basic drawing
techniques, including hatching, various stroke styles, and
blending. Applying the Essentials: Explore how the concepts of
sight-sizing, value, negative space/shapes, and plane changes
factor into a portrait's underlying structure. Techniques for
Creating Depth & Dimension:Investigate how contrasting shapes,
overlapping forms, and linear and atmospheric perspective are used
to enhance depth. Creating the Illusion of Three Dimensions:
Examine how edges-contours as well as changes in value-are used to
convey three-dimensional form. Brimming with striking images that
document all the phases and details of the author's process,
Drawing the Head for Artists inspires and informs all artists, from
aspiring to accomplished, on how to successfully portray the
physical subtleties and emotional eloquence of the human face. The
For Artists series expertly guides and instructs artists at all
skill levels who want to develop their classical drawing and
painting skills and create realistic and representational art.
