Download or read book On Drawing written by Roger Winter and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2002-06 with total page 164 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is for the beginning art major or for the general student who wants to learn more about drawing. Drawing teachers and advanced art students may also find it useful. While this book is about underlying visual principles and not naturalistic styles, it relies heavily on the study of objects, as mutual experiences in that world heighten communication between student and teacher and student and student. Through the study of objects, the student of drawing discovers how to see more intensely, compose, use the materials of drawing, work intuitively, and criticize. The chapters, as arranged, provide a coherent system of study. But regardless of any particular approach, all the ideas presented are meant to help gain an intimate, working knowledge of what the verb 'to draw' actually means. A Collegiate Press book

Download or read book A Handbook of Biological Illustration written by Frances W. Zweifel and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2007-12-01 with total page 154 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is designed to help biologists who must create their own illustrations and artists who are confronted with unfamiliar biological subjects. The author, an experienced biological illustrator, gives practical instructions and advice on the consideration of size and of printing processes, choice of materials, methods for saving time and labor, drawing techniques, lettering methods, and mounting and packing the finished illustrations. She explains how to produce clear and attractive charts, graphs, and maps, so essential to science publications. Though this primer does not cover photographic techniques, it does include advice on retouching, cropping, and mounting photographs and on using photographs of biological subjects as aids in drawing. This second edition is updated to reflect the many technological changes in art materials and printing processes that have occurred since the book's first publication, and it includes an entirely new chapter on planning, designing, and mounting the poster presentations that have become an essential part of conferences held by scientific societies. Also included are the requirements and conventions peculiar to biological illustration and a bibliography of useful reference works. "Every biology student who intends to write a thesis deserves to own this book, as does the biologist who intends to publish or work up some visual aids for his own use. There is no reason to limit the concepts of this handbook to the field of biology; it should be useful to other specific areas of science."—Evan Lindquist, American Biology Teacher (from a review of the first edition)
