128-Page Soft Cover—Companion Disk Included.
Includes the DVD-ROM Companion disk with 3000+ photos! Step into the studio with eleven professional art models in over a hundred beautifully photographed full color poses. Classic poses with a contemporary flair demonstrated by decidedly modern models (detailed previews at the publisher's web site livemodelbooks). Bennett interprets classic poses such as "The Dying Gaul" but also presents new and fun poses like Super Surfer and Swimmer. Susan's classic features work wonderfully for poses such as "Venus" and Degas' dancers. And Jen's youthful style and personality shine in her chapter of 20th century and newer poses. Plus eight other wonderful models give you a variety of ages and body types. "Images of the human form that come as close as possible to what you would see, if you were observing the models directly with your own eyes." Butch Krieger, from the foreword. Artists can easily access the human form outside of the studio with this solid pictorial reference. More than 500 crisp photographs portray a diverse set of models in 100 posesranging from the classical to the everydayand show the positions from a variety of angles, including overhead. Exquisitely detailed photos of particular body parts and precise lighting reveal otherwise hidden areas of the models while providing rich shadowing and tone. The inspiring photographs in this collection are ideal for both students and more advanced artists who are looking for material to supplement a live model class or to hone their skills from the comfort of home.
