Jake Spicer is an artist and drawing tutor based in Brighton, England. He is the head tutor at an independent drawing school called Draw and co-directs an organization called the Drawing Circus. He also regularly teaches portrait and figure drawing courses for art centers and museums. The document provides an introduction and table of contents to a book about learning to draw, with chapters on getting started with drawing, techniques, drawing in different environments and situations, and developing drawing skills.
The document provides information on various drawing tools and materials that can be used for portrait drawing. It discusses different types of pencils including graphite, charcoal, woodless and mechanical pencils. It also covers paper choices in terms of weight, size, texture and color. Additional drawing tools described include erasers, proportional devices, mirrors, lightboxes and fixative which can be used to transfer sketches and protect finished drawings.
This document provides biographies of several artists who contributed work to the book The Art of Basic Drawing, including Michael Butkus, Walter T. Foster, and Michele Maltseff. It also includes an overview of the tools and materials useful for basic drawing, such as pencils, erasers, and different types of paper. The introduction describes how the book covers a diverse range of drawing subjects and techniques to inspire readers and provide lessons from different artistic perspectives.
This document introduces an advanced drawing skills course that aims to help aspiring artists further develop their abilities. It discusses various techniques and topics that will be covered, including form, assessing works, studying from nature, expression, styles, and art appreciation. The course emphasizes regular practice, accepting mistakes as learning opportunities, getting feedback from others, and steady improvement over talent to progress drawing skills. It encourages exploring new approaches and styles, while training oneself to draw what is observed rather than inventing without substance.
Ron Lemen explains two approaches to figure drawing - observational and formulaic. The observational approach uses sight-size methodology and tools like plumb lines to capture accuracy, while the formulaic approach uses abstract shapes to construct figures. Lemen focuses on explaining the Reilly method, which builds the figure from its core structure and adds anatomy and details. The Reilly method establishes key lines to define the pose before adding arms, legs, and muscle groups to complete the figure. Mastering this system allows artists flexibility to create figures from different angles.

This document provides instructions for creating a figure drawing using a straight-line block-in technique. It describes a multi-step process:
1. Construct an "envelope" around the figure using long straight lines to establish proportions.
2. Add interior straight "web lines" that cut across the figure.
3. Establish midpoints by measuring halfway points on the model and marking them on the paper.
4. Draw the "terminator line" between light and shadow areas.
5. Gradually refine the contour lines without using curves, to accurately depict the figure within the initial straight-line framework.
Regularly checking proportions and being willing to "go back to the beginning"

Yes, manga artists will often use different pen nibs for different parts of the character.
Some common practices include:
- Using a thinner nib like a maru pen for outlines and details
- Using a thicker nib like a kabura pen for larger areas like clothing
- Using a G-pen for things like crosshatching and textures
By using different nibs, the artist can vary the line thickness and quality to add definition and realism to different elements of the character design. The goal is to leverage the strengths of each tool for optimal rendering. It's about picking the right nib for the job.

This document provides an overview of the materials and exercises needed to learn drawing from the book "Drawing on the Right Side of the Brain". Students are instructed to gather basic drawing materials and complete three pre-instruction drawings - drawing a person from memory, a self-portrait using a mirror, and drawing their own hand - to assess their starting skill level. These initial drawings will likely rely on childhood symbols rather than accurate perception. The exercises that follow are designed to train students to set aside preexisting symbols and learn to perceive and draw what they actually see by focusing on edges, spaces, light and shadow, and other basic perceptual skills. Personal style will then naturally emerge over time as skills improve.
