Review: Fun and instructive - I bought this book aftwr seeing it on a shelf at Michael's. I was drawn to the line workof the author. It is easy to follow and enjoyable.
Review: Lightweight, but a good instructional book - I've learned a few things from this book as a beginner. The "lessons" curve is quite steep. I'll still be using this to understand concepts a couple years from now I think.

*by K***D on October 23, 2016*

For someone who has been mostly self taught, this book is so useful! I used to sometimes struggle with getting down basic figures of people, but this book made it easier to draw people. It's looser than other guidelines I've read that make you draw so tightly, with all the boxes and various other shapes. Not to say that approach doesn't have its merits, but in Sketching People, it has you draw more loosely which allows you to find the flow and movement of a body since people aren't machines after all. I still look at this book from time to time and would definitely recommend.
