| loomis head and hands: Drawing the Head Walter T. Foster, 2013-01-16 An accomplished artist and teacher, Walter T. Foster began producing his classic art instruction books in the 1920s. He wrote, illustrated, printed, bound, packaged, shipped, and distributed his books from his own home for decades, before moving the business to a commercial facility to accommodate his international trade. This comprehensive volume combines four of the artist's vintage instructional manuals to form an essential guide to illustrating the head and face. Let your drawing be simple, Foster advises, and suggests that art students begin with the profile. Leave out unnecessary details until the basic shapes are in place. Then add the expressions that make the face the most interesting of all subjects. Instructions include step-by-step diagrams using charcoal, crayon, pencil, and brush to create finished portraits, plus tips on materials. With an array of subjects that include men, women, and children of various ages and ethnic types, this guide captures the mid-twentieth-century style of illustration to inspire today's artists. |

Winslow, 2015-08-04 This essential companion book to the bestselling Classic Human Anatomy provides artists and art students with a deeper understanding of human anatomy and different types of motion, inspiring more realistic and energetic figurative art.

Written by a long-time expert on drawing and painting human anatomy, Classic Human Anatomy in Motion offers artists everything they need to realistically draw the human figure as it is affected by movement. Written in a friendly style, the book is illustrated with hundreds of life drawing studies (both quick poses and long studies), along with charts and diagrams showing the various anatomical and structural components. This comprehensive manual features 5 distinct sections, each focusing on a different aspect of the human figure: bones and joint movement, muscle groups, surface form and soft tissue characteristics, structure, and movement.

| loomis head and hands: Doc Holliday Gary L. Roberts, 2011-05-12 Acclaim for Doc Holliday Splendid . . . not only the most readable yet definitive study of Holliday yet published, it is one of the best biographies of nineteenth-century Western 'good-bad men' to appear in the last twenty years. It was so vivid and gripping that I read it twice. --Howard R. Lamar, Sterling Professor Emeritus of History, Yale University, and author of The New Encyclopedia of the American West The history of the American West is full of figures who have lived on as romanticized legends. They deserve serious study simply because they have continued to grip the public imagination. Such was Doc Holliday, and Gary Roberts has produced a model for looking at both the life and the legend of these frontier immortals. --Robert M. Utley, author of The Lance and the Shield: The Life and Times of Sitting Bull Doc Holliday emerges from the shadows for the first time in this important work of Western biography. Gary L. Roberts has put flesh and soul to the man who has long been one of the most mysterious figures of frontier history. This is both an important work and a wonderful read. --Casey Tefertiller, author of Wyatt Earp: The Life Behind the Legend Gary Roberts is one of a foremost class of writers who has created a real literature and authentic history of the so-called Western. His exhaustively researched and beautifully written Doc Holliday: The Life and Legend reveals a pathetically ill and tortured figure, but one of such intense loyalty to Wyatt Earp that it brought him limping to the O.K. Corral and into the glare of history. --Jack Burrows, author of John Ringo: The Gunfighter Who Never Was Gary L. Roberts manifested an interest in Doc Holliday at a very early age, and he has devoted these past thirty-odd years to serious and detailed research in the development and writing of Doc Holliday: The Life and Legend. The world knows Holliday as Doc Holliday. Family members knew him as John. Somewhere in between the two lies the real John Henry Holliday. Roberts reflects this concept in his writing. This book should be of interest to Holliday devotees as well as newly found readers. --Susan McKey Thomas, cousin of Doc Holliday and coauthor of In Search of the Hollidays |
| loomis head and hands: Ethics J.L. Mackie, 1990-08-30 An insight into moral skepticism of the 20th century.

His refutation of such facts is based on their metaphysical 'queerness' and the observation of cultural relativity. |

| loomis head and hands: Dynamic Light and Shade Burne Hogarth, 1991-09-01 Mastery of light and shade - rendered with accuracy and expressive power - is the key to three-dimensional form in drawing and painting. Here is the first book on this essential subject, the product of years of study by one of the world's great teachers of drawing and an artist of international renown, Burne Hogarth. Hogarth begins with the simplist kind of light and shade, showing how a dark silhouette on white paper can communicate form and space. He then shows how the silhouette is transformed into three dimensions with the addition of minimal light - the highlight. Following these instructory chapters, Hogarth devotes a separate chapter to each of the given basic categories of light and shade: single-source light; double-source light; flat, diffused light; moonlight; and sculptural light. In these chapters Hogarth illustrates the effects of these different kinds of light on a variety of subjects and examines both natural and artificial light sources. Moving on to more complex lighting effects, Hogarth explains spatial light - how light and shade can create a sense of near and far; environmental light - the effects of weather, time of day, and the changing of seasons; textural light - how light reveals the surface qualities of forms that range from rough stone to silk and satin draperies; transparent light - the effects passing through transparent materials like glass and water, and translucent substances like moving water or sailcloth; fragmentation light - the disrupted light we see in such subjects as fire, rain, and flying snow; radiant light - the intense light we see when we look into the light source itself, which may range from the sun to a candle flame; and finally the various kinds of expressive light invented by the artist - such as the symbolic and mystic light of religious art, or the paterns of light and shade that convey a mood or a psychological state. Burne Hogarth illustrates every effect of light and shade with brilliant drawings in pencil, charcoal, carbon, pen and ink, and brush and ink, encouraging the reader to experiment with diverse drawing media. Dynamic Light and Shade is an essential volume for everyone who draws and paints. |

| loomis head and hands: Chaos Shadows George Sargent, 2011-06-01 DescriptionChaos Shadows: The Viridian Nexus is about a multiple murderer and rapist, Loomis Archiro Velox, who gets caught and imprisoned in the most high security prison in the world; Meadow Valley. While incarcerated, Loomis makes a pact with the devil to die right there and then, but come back in ten years so he can exact his revenge on the people that caught him. Ten years passes and Loomis comes back to the prison, along with other beings from hell, but the prison had been replaced by a shopping centre in which there are people locked in their that night. About the AuthorGeorge Sargent, born 1987 was a user of the early intervention team in Rotherham. Nearly four years ago George was diagnosed with schizophrenia and recently he was diagnosed with possible bipolar disorder. Also, about six months ago George was diagnosed with social anxiety, which stopped him going out and meeting new people a lot. He got the inspiration for this book while under the care of the early intervention team about a year ago on one of the rare days that he was able to go out of the house and wrote parts of the book as often as he could. It really helped to get his concentration back, to relax and to express himself in a new way. It has also helped him to get an idea for a second book as a continuation of this one and a third book which could be about his life and experiences before and during his psychosis. This book will hopefully show people that a person with mental disorders is just like anyone without one. |
| loomis head and hands: Survivors Will Be Shot Again Bill Crider, 2016-08-09 There's no such thing as a day off for a sheriff. Even in a small Texas town like Clearview, there's always something going on for law enforcement. Still, most days don't involve a run-in with an alligator. And that's not the worst of Sheriff Dan Rhodes's troubles, either. There's a dead man in Billy Bacon's barn, though Bacon swears he doesn't know how the body got there. Rhodes is a bit skeptical, given that the intruder has been shot twice and that Bacon has recently removed a sign from a fencepost near the barn, a sign that says Trespassers will be shot. Survivors will be shot again. The citizens of Clearview have been complaining about a rash of thefts, and Rhodes suspects that the dead man may have been involved in them. But before he can solve that crime, he also has to deal with a number of other puzzling crimes in the community, ranging from a holdup at a convenience store to the disappearance of a loaf of bread. And then there's the dang gator. In Bill Crider's Survivors Will Be Shot Again, Sheriff Dan Rhodes learns that, as the old saying goes, crime doesn't pay. But it also doesn't take a vacation. |
