For most beginners, people are the most rewarding, yet the most difficult subject. But experienced artists know a variety of secrets and shortcuts which are revealed here by a popular art educator. Ten progressive step-by-step demonstrations turn a beginner into a practiced artist by emphasizing particular challenges such as proportion, posture, balance, and clothing, as well as the elusive facial expression qualities of personality and character. Each project matches a unique combination of subject and medium: young woman standing (charcoal); young man standing (soft pencils); people on holiday (pastel pencils); child sitting (pencil); girl dancing (charcoal and chalk); wedding group (range of pencils); children playing (pastel pencils); people in sepia (conté); people sitting (colored pencils); and family gathering (line and wash).
