DYNAMIC FIGURE DRAWING BY BOURNE HOGARTH: A NEW APPROACH TO DRAWING THE MOVING FIGURE IN DEEP SPACE AND FORESHORTENING
Figure drawing is the most essential – and the most difficult – of all the skills for the artist to learn. In this manual Burne Hogarth introduces his own system of figure drawing, which should make it possible to visualize and accurately render the forms of the human body from every conceivable point of view. First Hogarth describes the forms of the human figure. Then he demonstrates his “deep space” notion, a systematic sketching order that is the key to drawing the figure with believable interconnection of forms and control of foreshortening. By mastering this remarkable system, artists should be able to draw an amazing variety of poses, actions and gestures without a model, while maintaining the correct relationship between forms.
