JohansenBridgman is one of those go-to artist's reference books that can be lkq3snEhh
very insightful when trying to get the head around drawing the shapes in the GOO6oYkyV
human body. There are other books that are also helpful and it is best to look at US45GEsyn
ideas from multiple perspectives, however, Bridgman is one of the more uWDJCbsj0
important contributors to our understanding of drawing the figure. He learned 1XEUZ1ZFq
his skills from Jean-Lon Grme at the cole des Beaux-Arts in Paris and XIRCvHSmf
subsequently taught life drawing at the Art Students League of New York for 45 LuMmT5ZIy
years.The twentieth century was a golden age for life drawing techniques and UVpmu4ZrN
we are very lucky that teachers like Bridgman chose to share their great ZwVN01YQw

some artists who went on to become very famous names. Norman Rockwell BxDfhQVnO
wrote glowingly of his studies with George Bridgman. Other famous students
were Robert Beverly Hale and Kimon Nicolades, both of whom went on to
produce life drawing books that have become standard references. Jackson
Pollock's sketchbooks include many drawings made from studying Bridgman's
book.I have been an art teacher for many years and Bridgman's Complete
Guide to Drawing From Life has always been one of those books I highly
recommend for all art students.0 of 0 people found the following review helpful.

form.0 of 0 people found the following review helpful. Very good.By faolan
gradyThis book, as with the other Bridgman books I've looked at, are immensely
helpful for learning anatomy through an artist's perspective. Definitely a must
buy for anyone looking to improve their artistic anatomy skills.

The timeless classic on drawing human figures is back! Following impressive

runs by Sterlings previous editions comes a new, redesigned version of George
W. Bridgmans landmark work. It combines six well-known books by the
celebrated artist and lecturer, who taught figure and anatomy drawing for many
years at New York Citys Art Students League. This edition preserves Bridgmans
lessons and original sketches, but now features a nostalgic, eye-catching cover
that distinguishes it from the competiti ...
