This latest book in Burne Hogarth's "continuing exploration of the problems and solutions involving the study of the human figure. Though a series of extraordinary drawings and diagrams, Hogarth, famous for his 'dynamic' style, shows how to depict wrinkles, folds and drapery. His basic idea is that an accurate rendering of wrinkle patterns depends on understanding how the actions of a figure provoke any material. Thoroughly covering a subject often overlooked, this book is a landmark in the art instruction field, both for its clear expression of a hitherto difficult-to-explain topic and for its informative and entertaining illustrations." - back cover.
