The Anatomy of Style Few art of anatomy books boast quite as much awe inspiring style and originality as this one from fantasy artist and teacher - Patrick J Jones! ***** Artist's Choice Five Star Gold Award!: ImagineFX Magazine

The Anatomy of Style! Once in a rare while, an art instruction book comes along that can be appreciated by anyone, no matter if you want to learn to draw or not. Patrick Jones's fresh, innovative approach breaks the human body down into shapes and rhythms that can easily be committed to memory, demystifying the art of figure drawing in the process. Much more than a book on anatomy, this guide explains how to use knowledge of the human form to produce drawings with style and grace, using pastel, pencil, and charcoal techniques and tools. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!Bud's Artbooks

"An amazing collection of work in the tradition and quite as powerful as the best of Boris, Frazetta, and I would add Howard Pyle. I can't say enough here—his work reminds me at times of Jose Segrelles, one of the very finest fantasy illustrators ever. Don't miss this!!"  —Bud Plant on Sci-Fi & Fantasy Oil Painting Techniques
