Methods of teaching academic figure in the realist school may be different. Some teachers have resorted to only ashamed of setting targets and oral explanation of the others, striving for greater clarity, are actively "are attached" to the drawing student. There is another, in our opinion, the most effective method, when the teacher reinforces their explanations necessary images.
That's how many years led the classes in drawing at St. Petersburg State Academic Institute of Painting, Sculpture and Architecture. IE Repin wonderful teacher and painter, Alexander L. Korolev.

Drawing From Life: The Journal as Art By Jennifer New
Publisher: Princeton Architectural Press 2005 | 192 Pages | ISBN: 1568984456 | PDF | 73 MB



Who hasn't, at one time or other, kept a journal? The impulse to record our daily lives on paper is nothing if not universal. Still, only a few of us have the discipline to make it past the first few entries, and fewer still manage to create diaries whose insight and visual beauty can inspire anyone but their authors. Drawing from Life: The Journal as Art is an exploration of these exceptions—books of obsessive wonder filled to their borders with drawings, sketches, watercolors, graphs, charts, lists, collages, portraits, and photographs. Jennifer New takes readers on a spirited tour into the private worlds of journal keepers—an architect, a traveler, a film director, an archeologist, a cancer patient, a songwriter, a quiltmaker, a gardener, an artist, a cyclist, and a scientist, to name just a few—illustrating a broad range of journaling styles and techniques that in the end show how each of us can go about documenting our everyday lives. Excerpts from journals by such artists as Maira Kalman, Steven Holl, David Byrne, and Mike Figgis give us a peek at how creative souls observe, reflect, and explore. For those who already keep a journal, Drawing from Life will be an inspiration. For those who have always wanted to—or tried and failed—it might just be the motivation needed to get past that first week.

Simplified drawing for planning animation By Wayne Gilbert


Simplified drawing for planning animation By Wayne Gilbert
Publisher: Anamie 1999 | 79 Pages | ISBN: 0971343918 | PDF | 5 MB



If you are an animator or are studying animation, this book is invaluable. Wayne Gilbert has decades of animation experience behind his observations, and I couldn't recommend it more highly.

For me, as an animator, it's a no-brainer to have this on my shelf with me at work. It covers far more than "just thumbnails," and does a great job of simplifying complex concepts such as force and you'll really get a great feel for what happens in the body when it's lifting something heavy or
hanging or fighting.

I can't tell you how many professional animators I know who swear by this book.

It's short, but awesome.

Japanese Brush Painting


Japanese Brush Painting
Hacker Art Books | English | 1988 | ISBN-10: 9990385696 | 32 pages | PDF | 26.4 Mb

Japanese brush painting is a relatively recent development and emerged out of the Buddhist schools of calligraphy (Shodo). The ancient art of Japanese brush painting, or sumi-e, is strikingly beautiful, simple and pure, yet strong and resonant. Closely related to Zen philosophy, the art of sumi-e is executed with black ink on white rice paper using bamboo brushes. Subjects in Japanese brush painting include landscapes, flowers, or animals, anything that suggests a closeness to the natural world.
