5.0 out of 5 stars Lightweight, but a good instructional book

I've learned a few things from this book as a beginner. The "lessons" curve is quite steep. I'll still be using this to understand concepts a couple years from now I think.

It is very difficult to sketch people in outdoor situation. I wanted to learn some techniques to capture the essence of their movements.

This book shows how to simplify the form, gesture of clothes,body language and much more. I am enjoy learning a lot from this book.

I took a figure drawing class last summer and wanted to take another class to keep my skill up. I got this book as instead because I can't really afford to take another class. So far this book is just as good if not better than taking a class. If you can find some time to sit down, this book is going to help you a lot.

5.0 out of 5 stars Very useful.
Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on 6 December 2012

This book is nice because it's very cut and dry. It's simple and very useful without any fluff. The concepts are easy to understand, and the illustrations are not unattainable by the average artist.
