Richly illustrated and interactive in its approach, Life Drawing: A Sketch and Textbook is an innovative, dual-use textbook/sketchbook, combining technical instruction with the space to actually execute the lessons. Its unique format alternates between education and practice-a critical balance in studio-art courses. Concise instructions are supported by a wide assortment of examples that clearly address the basics of drawing the human figure and the application of life drawing skills in a variety of fields, including animation and the web. Ample blank space throughout the text gives students the opportunity to immediately apply what they have learned, creating a journal of drawings, ideas, and notes right in their text, for use now and later.

Divided into three parts-the basics, elements of drawings, and the creative process--this innovative textbook/sketchbook aims to teach students how to draw by actively engaging them in practical projects. Authors Margaret Lazzari, Dona Schlesier, and Douglas Schlesier provide reproductions of student and professional artworks that can serve as inspiration/models and give students the opportunity to create a journal of drawings, ideas, notes, and inspirations, for use now and later.
