How often does an aspiring artist read a book or take a class on drawing the human body, only to end up with page after page of stiff lifeless marks rather than the well-conceived figure the course promised?
Though there are many books on drawing the human figure, none teach how to draw a figure from the first few marks of the quick sketch to the last virtuosic stroke of the finished masterpiece, let alone through a convincing, easy-to-understand method.
That changes now.
In Figure Drawing for Artists: Making Every Mark Count, award-winning fine artist Steve Huston shows beginners and pros alike the two foundational concepts behind the greatest masterpieces in art and how to use them as the basis for their own success.
Embark on a drawing journey and discover how these twin pillars of support are behind everything from the Venus De Milo to Michelangelo's Sibyl to George Bellow's Stag at Sharkey's, how they're the fundamental tools for animation studios around the world, and how the best comic book artists from the beginnings of the art form until now use them whether they know it or not.
Figure Drawing for Artists: Making Every Mark Count sketches out the same two-step method taught to the artists of DreamWorks, Warner Brothers, and Disney Animation, so pick up a pencil and get drawing.

Review
"Steve Huston's new instruction book, FIGURE DRAWING FOR ARTISTS, has been long over due and something I have personally waited for. A consummate draftsman, brilliant painter and one of the most knowledgeable artist I have ever had the pleasure of knowing has made this valuable book available for anyone who is truly interested in understanding the principals of drawing. This book will be the yardstick that all other instructional drawing books are measured by." - Dan McCaw, Fine Artist
"When heavyweight teaching is required at Disney or any of the other Hollywood studios, Steve Huston is their champion, their go-to guy. No one conveys and reveals the mysteries of the human body better than Steve. His expertise speaks to all ages at all levels. Steve's instruction is rock solid with a no-nonsense approach (spiced with a delicious dry wit) that doesn't annoy you with the trivial. When it comes to learning to draw the figure, the bold strokes and timeless information of the Huston method just can't be topped." - William Stout, Artist and Illustrator
"Finally a book that emphasises gesture and rhythm first and foremost. I think the book is weighted just right for making it clear to the current photo copyist culture, and the overly medicalized anatomy culture, that gesture, rhythm, and playful, designed proportion are by far the most important initial visual ideas. Not only for the figure, but for entire images." - Erik Olsen, faculty at College of Creative Studies, Detroit
"Steve Huston is a living master, and one of the few who can teach as well as he paints. He's both a mentor and an inspiration to a new generation of professional artists around the world." - Joshua Jacobo, Cofounder and CEO, New Masters Academy
"Steve Huston is one of the most uniquely powerful artists out there . . . a modern master. [Figure Drawing for Artists] is a phenomenal resource. Steve's insight and love for what he does inspires. This book should be in every student's library. That being said, it's for every artist - students and professionals alike." - Carlos Huante, Art Director, Industrial Light & Magic, a division of Lucasfilm

A Bit of a Let Down
By Steven Larsen
What am I missing? I am a big fan of Steve Huston the artist and instructor. I have seen his videos, which are very thorough and detailed. I admire his skill. The book was a let down. It didn't seem to surpass other books on the market and in some ways, fell short of them.
There is less instruction than I hoped. Much of the text needs a re write for clarity as well as some additions for depth. The pictures don't clearly support the text, at least not easily. The authors fabulous sketches aren't even here in abundance, and while it isn't a show off book, if the instruction is lacking, which I believe it is, then at least give us more eye candy or material to copy.
This is much more like a fancy set of notes for those who have studied with Steve Huston or taken his classes.
Negative reviews don't make me popular but I have to call it as I see it. It pains me to say it, but I think there are better books out there.
So you can get some idea where I am coming from and determine if this review is has relevance to you, some books I really like are Mike Matessi's Drawing Force and The Weatherly Guide to Drawing Animals, Rankin's Fast Sketching Techniques, and Mellem's Sketching People.

The book we have all been waiting for
By Client d'Amazon
At long last a book that tells you HOW to do things - I have hundreds of art books, most of them are barely disguised promotions or the art of the author, others order you to: "do this!" but never tell you "how", and you end up starting every drawing hoping for the best and being regularly disappointed.
Steve Huston's book is a blessing for all artists, it explains, shows and analyses in simple but precise terms the how-to that no one else explains. After reading once (and a half) this book I have already had several "ahah! but of course!" epiphanic moments, and I am beginning to know what I'm doing when I begin a drawing - if I do it wrong, no matter, I start again, I know the steps to follow.
Huston also tells us about the meaning of art, the way to freedom in art and gives us tons of examples of all steps in the drawing.
An invaluable, clear, useful book that I can't recommend enough. A beautiful one too, which is always a nice plus.
If you want to understand what you are doing when you do art, and not rely on luck each time you start a drawing, this is a much have book. Many thanks Mr Huston for sharing your knowledge and experience! - M.C.

A Concise but Thorough Look into the Mind of Steve Huston regarding Drawing
By J Francis
Great book. If you have the opportunity to learn from Mr. Huston via recorded lecture (or better yet, in person) you should sketch along with him and take notes, rather than watch him do all the work. Once you have taken your own notes and done your own work, this book is a great way to revisit his notes and ideas in his own words, and it's another chance for you to follow along and do additional work alongside his. The book is thorough but concise. The book doesn't cover much in the way of color or painting, but then again, it's a drawing book. If another book on painting is in the works the consider me already in line to buy it.
