The
Figure in Motion by Thomas Easley, Mark Smith (Photographer)
Book Description: Leaping, somersaulting, stretching, dancing
figures animate this gallery of marvelous action poses, photographed for
artists of all levels to use as reference when portraying human figures
in motion.
Expertly composed and lit pictures of male and female models in suspended
action show the body from numerous vantage points. Students practice figure
drawing by copying the photos, while advanced artists use them as points
of departure, altering body positions to suit specific compositional needs.
