Force: The Key to Capturing Life Through Drawing

I simply can not put into words, what this book can do for a struggling artist. This and "The Animators Survival Guide", Scott McCloud's Trilogy on comics, and a good book on anatomy, are the only books you'll ever need on drawing. The offer wisdom and guidance that no "How to draw" book ever will. These guys all have been in the artistic trenches, experienced it all, and impart to the new generation wanting to do this stuff, how to do it. I'm not even an animator, more a comic artist who doesn't draw comics, but every time I hit a block or wall, these books give me the inspiration to push beyond "Great". They give me the much needed kick in the rearend, leading from "I draw" to "I am an artist". All you'll ever need are these books, and I would suggest that ANY artist buy this book, and the others mentioned right this minute. The Preface to this book is enough to break down many walls a beginner or intermediate artist might be behind, and when they come crashing down? You'll draw like you never thought you could ever have.
