Save yo urself a r eturn tr ip and examine the Conté befor e leaving the stor e.
Sometimes, the Conté is mish andled which c an destr oy its us ability. Note: When purch asing yo ur Conté, make certain th at the Conté sticks ar e not br oken within the p ackaging. If yo u ar e a mor e heav y-h anded artist, think of investing in a h ar der gr ade of Conté. Conté comes in var i o us gr ades of h ar dness with a 2B gr ade being wh at I like to use most. Enjoy.Ĭonté Cr ayon While other artists use ch arco al pencils, vine ch arco al, and p astel, I h ave fo und Conté cr ayon to be my favor ite tool for gestur e dr awing. This book is a collecti on of my exper imentati ons knowing full well, th at I will pr obably never find the answer. I wonder ed, wh at is mor e important to pr actice, technique versus cr eativity, accur acy versus design? I am not sur e I h ave these answers yet, but my quest for finding these answers, thr o ugh dr awing the figur e, sur e h as been a fun one. Reali zing th at absolute mastership of dr awing the human form is never r eally achievable, I kept tr ying to figur e o ut new ways to dr aw the figur e and exper iment cr eatively. While this pr actice still r emains tr ue, I was hoping th at quick gestur es of the figur e co uld become an aesthetic ally pleasing piece of art as well. As a yo ung tr aditi onal animator, I was taught th at dr awing the figur e in quick poses was an essential pr actice for any aspir ing animator who wanted to learn how to master the gestur e of the human figur e. I certainly do not think th at my appr o ach is any mor e valid th an the next, but ther e ar e r easons why I h ave gr avitated to dr awing this way and hopefully th at will shed some light on this pr ocess. THE UNRE ACHABLE GOAL Overview Ther e ar e a lot of differ ent appr o aches o ut ther e on dr awing the human figur e, none of which ar e the “r ight” way or the only way. In other wor ds, don’t get bother ed with this book if it feels a little light on basic instr ucti on - I didn’t design it th at way. Ther e ar e do zens of fantastic books o ut ther e th at cover these pr inciples in a much mor e compr ehensive way.
these ar e things which I do not cover in this book.
An intr oductor y figur e-dr awing co urse wo uld cover pr inciples like: basic pr oporti ons, volume, for eshortening, anatomy, light and sh adow, etc., etc. I co uld not h ave obtained any of this knowledge witho ut h aving spent many ho urs in intr oductor y co urses pr acticing the fundamentals of dr awing the human form. Wh at this book does is explor e and examine my personal cr eative appr o ach to dr awing and styli zing the human figur e. Yo u Sho uld Know This is not an ac ademic figur e-dr awing book nor does it cover the basics of dr awing the human form.
