Creative form drawing is a fascinating and meaningful artistic activity for health and wellbeing. It helps with focus and is fun. It engages the right brain by getting into the flow of color, form, and movement. It offers the opportunity for personal creativity, using stunning, colorful forms to stimulate originality. Creative form drawing can be energizing and relaxing, calming and enlivening, and a valuable aid to harmonizing body and soul. This first creative form drawing book for adults features fourfold patterns of increasing challenge, featuring Celtic, Moorish, Native American, and Buddhist patterns and encourages the development of new forms. The forms have symmetry--balance between left and right and between above and below, connecting the center with the periphery while providing stability and harmony. Some forms are rhythmic, with patterns that move in flowing rhythms and lines. Other forms are inspired organically by nature's colors and formations. Flowers provide inspiring ideas for color combinations and new forms. Drawing with line, form, color, and beauty is a balancing, healing, and enlivening process. Originally developed by Rudolf Steiner, creative form drawing is widely used in Waldorf education to support healthy development and learning of children of all ages, aiding eye-hand coordination, balance, confident movement, observation, and drawing skills.

The must-have guide for all artists who draw the human figure!

In Morpho: Hands and Feet, artist and teacher Michel Lauricella presents a unique approach to learning to draw the human body. In this book, Lauricella focuses exclusively on the hands and feet—arguably the most popular and, for many, the most challenging parts of the body to draw successfully. Breaking the subject matter down into the underlying skeletal shapes, followed by the musculature, then the skin and fat, and finally, the veins, Lauricella offers multiple approaches—from simple forms to complex renderings—and a plethora of positions and gestures are included to help you improve your drawing skills.

Geared toward artists of all levels, from beginners through professionals, this handy, pocket-sized book will help spark your imagination and creativity. Whether your interest is in figure drawing, fine arts, fashion design, game design, or creating comic book or manga art, you will find this helpful book filled with actionable insights.

(Publisher's Note: This book features an “exposed” binding style. This is intentional as it is designed to help the book lay flat as you draw.)

Viewing drawing as a unique art form, this book was deigned to simplify and clarify the instruction of drawing for beginning learners in a manner that allows for specificity in instrumentation and concept. It discusses drawing as an underlying structural principle in relation to other art forms, with its own particular language rooted in direct tactile experience of media and the analytical investigation of the visible. Readers will gain an understanding of the basic workings of drawing by finding connections between natural visual phenomena and the more abstract principles of design and pictorial construction.

Unique to Waldorf Education, form drawing helps children (and adults!) to build a sense of spatial awareness, a sense of balance, a sense of movement, a sense of design, and a sense of the shapes, both in positive and in negative space. First grade begins with all drawing being made of straight lines and curved lines, and then the drawing builds, grade by grade, year by year, with the children's development. Form drawing is beautiful, elegant, challenging and cultivates clear thinking and the weaving of thought. This book brings a remarkable variety of approaches to Form Drawing and is mostly in vibrant, full-color pictures, and very little text (1,000 words in each picture!). This book is fully translated into English, though the original was written in English, German, and Dutch! Looking for a guide to artistic courage in drawing? This book will be of great help! Looking to teach at home and yearning to add artistic work that also promotes healthy brain development? Here's the answer in a single glorious publication!
