A solid intruction book
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 15 years ago
An excellent book with step-by-step instructions. I always enjoy Mr. Parramon style and precision. The exercises go a long way in de-mystifying the heads and portrait. I really enjoy the section that deals with the positioning of the head at various angles.
Concise, Precise, Exact

This book contains all the principles a portrait artist needs to know. It is extremely useful for all levels of ability. It covers everything from the rudiments of the construction of the head to practical advice for composition. I really feel this book help to shape and refine my technique. I recommend trying to draw all the examples as you go through it. Then reread it one more time for a more thorough understanding.
A must-have for any artist

Jose Parramon's book is a necessity for any artist. This book not only includes a canon for the standards of proportions, but takes you step-by-step thorough the process of drawing a successful portrait. He also includes information on drawing children as well as older adults. This is one of the most helpful and complete book on drawing portraits I have every owned!
