In this second DVD of the Drawing the Figure series, Jack explores the properties of structure.
Here, he introduces the basic elements required to create the illusion of 3-Dimensional space and form as they apply to the human figure. By constructing simple forms, exploring overlap and translating the complexity of the human body into its simplest, most basic forms, we can begin to understand the process of converting a 3-Dimensonal, real world form onto a flat, 2-Dimensional surface that an observer can understand. Jack will demonstrate how to see the forms and draw through them without losing the gestural quality described in his first DVD.

Do you have a hard time drawing hands? Most artists do find it difficult to draw hands and feet mainly because they have not focused on learning how to. This brand new DVD will teach you how to draw any hand or foot in any position.

The training included on the Structure of Man DVDs is nothing short of remarkable. I am not even halfway through this (stunningly) comprehensive series of anatomy drawing videos, and I would urge anyone with the slightest interest in fine art to invest in this training without hesitation. Taking the viewer from the basic formulas of human proportion to the creation of advanced skeletal and muscle structures (and beyond), Mr. Phoenix has been truly generous with his time and talent, creating a product that will surely stand the test of time as one of the foremost instructional resources on the topic of human anatomy illustration.
