Artist Daily publishes free eBook on the Importance of Life Drawing Lessons and Drawing Models

Jan. 16, 2012 - PRLog -- The free eBook can be downloaded online: http://www.artistdaily.com/Life-Drawing

The free eBook offers tips and reasons for artists to pursue life drawing lessons and sessions to learn how to draw models.  Continuing with this practice throughout an artist’s career will result in better art.  Life drawing is a consistently rewarding artistic expression, because it requires so much attention to detail. Every time a model makes a move, there's something to glean and work on—shadows and gesture to skin texture and how the limbs extend. Every life drawing pose reveals a whole new avenue of artistic pursuit. Continuing in life drawing lessons and mastering life drawing skills can greatly improve an artist’s skill level.  Some of the reasons life drawings should be a part of every artist's repertoire:

-   Improve Overall Drawing Skills
-   Draw Better from Photographs
-   Produce a Series of Life Drawing Sketches Quickly

Life drawing lessons and workshops are an ideal setting to discover prospective life drawing models and life drawing poses for later work. Skillful models may take life drawing poses that are especially inspiring, generating ideas for further exploration. The majority of models are happy to arrange private sittings, be it for figure or portrait. In the context of a workshop, the artist and the model will become familiar while working together in a comfortable group situation.

An accomplished artist and writer shares what drawing models has contributed to her art career in this free life drawing eBook. Life drawing lessons or workshops can be found at local colleges, community recreation centers, galleries, museums, artist clubs, and associations. Also, other artists—found through galleries, local art schools, and colleges— sometimes run life-drawing sessions in their own studios or belong to drawing groups that meet regularly to draw models.
