Drawing the Human Head

The acclaimed cartoonist hailed as the “Michelangelo of the comic strip” presents a comprehensive and authoritative guide on how to draw any type of head from every angle, age the face from infancy to old age, and much more. In Drawing the Human Head, Burne Hogarth masterfully analyzes the basic structure, proportions, and anatomy of the human head. He carefully delineates the precise form and musculature of every facial feature; he outlines wrinkle patterns and demonstrates how to draw the head from every single angle; and he clearly explains how to age the face from birth to old age. Stressing the primary need to draw the head and body artistically, Hogarth defines head types according to structure and explains what features go with these types. To illustrate the vast diversity of head structures and proportions, he displays a sampling of heads throughout the world and offers a gallery of great heads in paintings, drawing, etches, sculptures, and other notable works of art throughout history. Burne Hogarth’s unique teaching methods in Drawing the Human Head, part of his comprehensive Dynamic Drawing Series, are indispensable for every professional artist, art student, teacher, painter, sculptor, illustrator, cartoonist, animator, and serious amateur. Burne Hogarth’s masterful Dynamic Drawing Series is an invaluable resource for any artist: DRAWING DYNAMIC HANDS • DRAWING THE HUMAN HEAD • DYNAMIC ANATOMY • DYNAMIC FIGURE DRAWING • DYNAMIC LIGHT AND SHADE • DYNAMIC WRINKLES AND DRAPERY
