Each instructor walks you through their philosophy for croquis sketching. Croquis sketches are quickly-rendered drawings that capture the essentials of a subject's form and pose with relatively few expressive lines.
There are four levels of sketching described in the book:
- 1-minute croquis: very rapid gesture drawings that capture only the artist's impressions of the form, and where the pencil stays in contact with the paper for practically the entire session
- 2-minute croquis: another quick sketch, but with more attention paid to the character and rhythm of the lines and how they help to express the essence of the form
- 5-minute croquis: a more finished drawing where added tonal variations suggest volume and anatomical details
- 10-minute croquis: more of a finished drawing than true croquis, the longer session allows the luxury of adding fine details such as the facial expression, the character of the hands and clothing texture
Learn to sketch the following:
- Individual body parts (including faces) and their bone structure and muscles
- Standing and sitting poses
- Nudes and clothed figures
- Light and dark tonal variations
- Dynamic poses
- Color drawings
