About this Item

This workbook accompanies artist Tom Fox's new book An Artist's Guide to Drawing Clothed Characters, giving readers space to practise and improve with guidance from the author, or can be studied alone as a hands-on drawing aid. With 200 pages of accessible instructions and figures to draw over on the page, this workbook allows the reader to practise the theory put forth in the main book, while also functioning perfectly as a standalone. The exercises consist of partial references at low opacity, with the figure or geometric mannequin beneath the clothing provided so the reader can concentrate on drawing the clothes only. Additionally, this workbook includes some bonus clothing and pose references from the artist - ones there wasn't room for in the main book. This and the main title are follow-ups to Tom Fox's previous book, Anatomy for Artists: Drawing Form and Pose (over 30,000 copies sold to date), with the figure-drawing maestro taking a deep dive into the subjects of clothing and drapery. Using his unique approach of simplified mannequins and dynamic figure sketches, Tom shares his process for improving your figures holistically, understanding fabric physics, and capturing the fold, stretch, and crumple of believable clothing.
