Classical Drawing Atellier

"A great book that I recommended for students"
I came across this book "Classical Drawing Atellier" and I was amazed at the techniques and much details that the author explained. When I was a kid I have always wanted to get my hands on a book like this. It teaches students the techniques and skills that old masters uses to create realistic figures in much 3d form. Not only that the books talk about the techniques and skills but it shows you step by step to create better curvature lines, planes and value to show more realistic forms. Also, the books shows you how to use lines and planes to measure with accuracy when looking at a figure so that your finish work shows proportion. But most importantly, this book speaks about merging the techniques and skills learned to create master artwork. If you are someone who wants to improve your understanding of lines, planes, measurments, values and to combine the techniques to create a priceless artwork this book is for you. Lastly, this book shows astonishing artworks from the old masters of the renaissances era and current students.
