Book Synopsis
Chris Hart has a head for figures - human figures, that is. Not only does he draw them with incredible style and flair, he also has a friendly, accessible teaching style that makes his how-to books super-sellers. In this unique figure-drawing course, Chris avoids the usual anatomy lessons that intimidate aspiring artists and gets right down to the basics young illustrators need to get started. Beginning with heads and facial expressions; he moves on to full figures; male and female, ideal and average, some in fashion poses and others in dynamic action. On every page, his practical advice and clear examples will help readers achieve terrific results - and have fun every step of the way.

"This entertaining book is aimed at the amateur who simply wants to sketch people. Authored by one of the most prolific and successful cartoon artists, it eschews the bones-and-muscles approach. This should prove popular with the general public." —Library Journal
