This book introduces the author's own revolutionary system of figure drawing-a system which makes it possible to visualize the forms of the human body from every conceivable point of view as they interlock in deep space. With this system you will be able to draw an incredible variety of poses, actions, and gestures without a model, and with the correct relationships between forms.
Burne Hogarth was a founder of the School of Visual Arts in New York Citiy, where he served as Coordinator of Curriclum, Design, and Art History. His famed lecture demonstrations of anatomy and drawing provided the material for Dynamic Anatomy, Drawing the Human Head, Dynamic Figure Drawing, Drawing Dynamic Hands, and Dynamic Light and Shade.
Mr. Hogarth received his education and art background in Chicago, where he started a diversified professional career that embraced some forty years of experience in art education, fine art, illustration, advertising, and newspaper art. He achieved worldwwide recognition with his illustrations for the Sunday newspaper illustrated 'Tarzan' and has since published Tarzan of the Apes and Jungle Tales of Tarzan in book form. His cartoons, drawings, prints, and paintings have been exhibited at the Musee des Arts at Decoratifs of the Louvre in Paris.
