This is a book full of ideas and things to think about when attempting to draw people. It covers a wide range of subjects and is aimed at the established artist. Lots of different styles and themes are used, and the book is full of illustrations. There are no step by step instructions but plenty of food for thought and enough details to help an artist improve their work in many ways.. It demonstrates the complexities and details of being a good portrait or people artist. A good book for an artist to have on their shelf and dip into when required.
