Book Description
This book will have beginning artists of all ages drawing faces that are strikingly realistic and detailed. Artist Carrie Stuart Parks honed her fast and effective drawing skills as a professional forensic artist. Here she makes drawing fun and easy, showing beginners how to render vivid self portraits and portraits of others, all in a matter of hours.
Artists will successfully learn how to master proportions and map facial features accurately. They will then study shapes within a composition and learn to draw them realistically. Lastly, artists will study the subject's values and use them to bring life and accuracy to each portrait. A final "checking" step helps artists capture heightened realism and accuracy.
This book features clear step-by-step instructions, before-and-after examples from students, and proven drawing exercises used to train artists throughout the country.

Secrets to Drawing Realistic Faces.......2007-04-11
This book was recommended to me by someone who is an artists for crime victims. It was used in the classes she went to. I am practicing drawing eyes at the moment. I have to say that I am now drawing the best eyes ever. This book explains more that where to put the features. It explains how to make the features come to life.
Drawing Techniques Analyzed and Simplified .......2007-03-23
Again, I checked this one out from the library before purchasing. I did not want another book that just told me to sit down and 'draw what you see'. When it comes to faces, the proportions are the hardest part for me. This book goes into great detail explaining how to 'measure' the features of a real person, not the imaginary kind we see in fashion layouts. I have actually seen great improvement after only a few drawings. The best way to improve is to do separate studies of each facial feature until we get them right, and this book explains how. Practice is what brings the progress. Finding time is the problem. This book makes it very clear that anyone with good eyesight can learn to draw peoples' faces. It's just like learning any other skill. This woman teaches this course to police artists, ordinary people with no previous artistic training. It works!
This book really helped!.......2007-02-08
I love this book, I got it from the library, but I had to have my own copy. I was able to actually capture a likeness for the first time! Her technique of measuring can be applied to more than just faces. I bought her second book, but this one is better.

Helpful approach to difficult area. Almost 200 drawings plus text and examples from work of Vermeer, Hals, Rembrandt, others.
Customer Reviews:
Short, but very good book of techniques.......2007-08-10
For the price, I don't think you can get a better book on drawing human heads. Bridgman illustrates a structural approach to the head and its features. (I agree that his language it sometimes a bit difficult to follow, but the sketches show everything you need to know about his technique).
The book covers basic proportions of the head, an introduction about how to approach the head as a series of planes, how to draw the eyes, nose, ears, and mouth in a structural way, a brief comparision of adult to child head proportions, and an introduction to how to draw the heads at different perspectives.
Overall, it's a short book, but it's packed with valuable techniques that have definitely improved my portrait drawings.
This would be a start for me.......2007-02-27
to explore and capture some facial expressions when drawing pictures of people. I'm an artist and I want to take my artwork to a higher ground and this book would be the template for future drawings.
Great for beginners!.......2006-03-19
This really isn't an *in-depth* book- Very slim & brief, it's definitely great for a quick intro to the basics...
Bridgman gets right into it: starting with the basic outline, he proceeds to planes and basic shading, then follows with a decent look at the various features we all need to be familiar with. Eyes, nose, mouth & ears are simply & accurately treated. Basic proportions are touched upon. This is actually great material for beginners (recommended!), in contrast to his usual intermediate-level stuff. With *very high* paper quality (thank you!!!), the drawings here seem to be a bit more clear than in his other books. Stylistically speaking, this is very different & interesting for Bridgman. He actually displays representations of various famous figures: Vermeer of Delft; Frans Hals; Sir Joshua Reynolds; Rembrandt Van Ryn; George Washington; Abraham Lincoln; and Louise Elisabeth LeBrun. This tends to be my least favorite aspect of the book, although the accompanying text is actually sometimes pretty interesting. Miscellaneous drawings here also include: men; women; children; a chef; a clown; a small Leonardo Da Vinci self-portrait sketch; and Jolly St. Nick a.k.a. Santa Claus. I kinda like these miscellaneous drawings! Like I said, this is all *very* different from his usual, uniquely-conceived, figure drawing efforts. Facial expressions are barely touched upon. This is a basic-level book in pretty much every single respect.
He describes *introductory* methods of construction in the last few pages- perspective, cube-construction & oval construction. This book will *not* teach you to construct heads from every conceivable point of view from memory. For a more detailed look at constructing heads from memory, check out his truly excellent & more famous works: Constructive Anatomy and Bridgman's Complete Guide to Drawing From Life. Bridgman is famous for his cube-construction of the head, but we only get a little of it in these very brief pages. Great for beginners! Also great & more *in-depth*, 5-star works for beginners: Drawing the Head and Figure by Jack Hamm, and Andrew Loomis' Drawing: The Head. All currently available here on Amazon!
Awkwardly worded but still interesting.......2002-03-11
The art, in my person opinion, is rather ugly but it serves it's purpose. I did have a problem with the wording. It was often too technical and a bit awkward. The sentence structure was a bit odd. I guess the point of the writing style was to be different and not seem oversimplific. However it was not simple enough. A book like this should be simple and easy to understand. I also think there are some terms that should have been clarified or defined but they were not. I got the impression that this book was not aimed at beginners but more at intermediates who were familiar with some of the terminology. Don't get me wrong, the terminology was not that difficult to guess the meaning of, but it did detract from my enjoyment of the book. I am just not fond of this particular style of writing. Other people may like it. And the book has some valuable information.
Mildly recommended.
It was great!.......2000-09-13
This was a great guide, it really had structure. It helped a lot. George B. Bridgmam realy knows what he's talking about.
Customer Reviews:
as easy as it gets.......2007-09-03
This is a must. As easy as it gets art book that promotes development in every sense (not just artistic). Projects are simple yet sophisticated, the whole family can have really good fun with it. And as a plus, it often requires little or no intervention, so you can watch football (or quilt) and let the kid(s) play.
The whole series is about evenly great, just can't go wrong with it.
Lots of fun...........2007-01-23
My 6 year old and I have a lot of fun with this book. I am no artist, so I really enjoy learning and these are fairly simple. We were on a family vacation and drew for several hours making monsters and adding backgrounds and bodies or Princess/Kings and castles. It was very entertaining. We even tried using the simple shapes to come up with our own faces. We also got the train/truck book for my sign, BUT it's a lot more complicated.
Fair teaching, poor content.......2007-01-16
I was rather dissappointed at the content offered and barely impressed at the book's attempt at teaching new skills. I bought the book for my 5, 7 and 9 year old children and the 9 year-old had already mastered all of the skills offered, the 7 year-old was bored very quickly and only the 5 year old's attention was held any length of time, but his age group lacks the concetration level to hang on for long. The content was far too simple and barely progressed through the entire book...this book should be marketed to only highly introverted 4-6 year-olds in my opinion, and then it would get only 3 stars....
Great Book for Teaching Expressions!.......2007-01-11
My 5 1/2 and 4 1/2 year old sons LOVE these books, I am amazed at what they have learned to draw, and they enjoy creating their own versions of the faces shown in the book. My 2 1/2 year old daughter really likes to point out her favorite monsters for all of us to draw for her. This book encourages creativity and independent artistry!

It is an easy way to follow a drawing process. Kids love this book and the artist has touched little children's lives.

Customer Reviews:
An Excellent Guide!.......2007-09-28
Face Off is an excellent step by step guide to analyzing a face and creating great caricatures. I've been an artist for more than 20 years and was always amused by caricatures, but never developed a knack for creating them . . . until I got this book. After only 6 weeks of following the step by step guidelines I've developed my own style and I'm creating hilarious pictures of my friends and family. I highly recommend this book to both beginning artists and more experienced professionals looking to branch into caricatures.
Great Modern Caricature How-To.......2007-08-04
"Face Off" is one of the better books on basic caricaturing, in part because of its modern, graphic-heavy approach. Also, in my opinion, this work is more up to date than most other books on the subject, even explaining how to color your drawings in PhotoShop without screwing up the original artwork.
This book covers a lot of ground, although out of necessity it isn't always what you would call "in-depth" in its information. For a broader understanding of caricaturing, I would suggest that you get this book along with another more detailed work such as Len Redmann's How To Draw Caricatures and/or Let's Toon Caricatures by Keelan Parham. I have found all of these books to be extremely helpful, especially when taken together.
Overall, this is a fun and informative book.
Good Stuff.......2007-06-19
Well when I got this book in the mail, I was very excited. Only to have my bubble bust when while flipping through the pages i realized that these are more cartoons than caricatures. None the less the information presented here is invaluable to any aspiring cartoonist or caricaturist. (I strongly believe theres a difference). However i'm not really complaining I would still recommend this book to anyone who wants to learn to draw caricatures. I belive by mastering this book one would have obtained the skills to produce both caricature and cartoon portraits. So in my final analysis I would have to give it a 4/5 stars (due to my initial disapointment).
The Book I've been looking for........2007-05-22
This book combines both great artistic skills with instructional skills to create an excellent book for the less experienced caricature artist. I found much that I could use in improving my own caricaturing within this book's pages. The author shows step by step partial drawings along with the completed black and white caricature, as well as the colored in version. I like the author's caricaturing style, not over exagerated, but very recognizable as the person pictured. This is the book, that I think I will get the most use out of, of the 4 books that I purchased together. I really love it.
You gotta get this BOOK!.......2007-02-24
I cannot tell you how long I have waited for a book with this much insight. If you are an aspiring caricature artist this book is a M-U-S-T. I have been doing caricature art for over ten years and this book filled in all the gaps. Harry Hamernik tells it all and does it step by step.
Buy this book and close your account because this is all you need to grow in your craft. Well done Harry, well done.

Book Description
Unique in the literature and sure to become a standard reference, here is the first guide to the identification and restoration of building facades. Featuring 2,000 b/w halftones illustrations, it chronicles in photo-essay style the diversity of facades from around the world. Images are shown within their historical and social context, and are easily accessed through cross-references to chronology, geography, location, building type, type of detail, and materials used. Select case studies (Ellis Island Museum and others) emphasize the practical aspects of preservation.
Customer Reviews:
Superb.......2007-04-10
The author and artist did a superb job in explaining the theory of emotion, and then his actual drawings provide an excellent guide to these basic emotions. This is a rare and unique combination.
Some very good, the rest very bad........2007-03-08
This book gives you an excellent overview of the anatomical structure of the human head. A distilled amount of studied and learned information. I'm sorry to say that the author is one that is better at teaching than drawing, because almost all of his example drawings are so badly executed that I found myself wondering how the heck it all went so wrong when he applied his own techniques to his subjects.
I got rid of the hardbound paper cover for this book so that I would not be instantly "turned off" by the ones on the front and back of the dust jacket. The drawings themselves are so overworked to the extreme that words fail me. They look forced and do not consistently convey the emotion that the author attributes to them.
I found myself "deflated" rather than inspired to use his techniques because of the example drawings (although this may not bother you as I tend to be a "hothouse plant" when it comes to quality and execution of ideas).
Summing up: On the Pro side: A fine reference to add to your library for the biological anatomy of the head, both in proportion and a broken down "geometrical" approach of it's basic construction - On the Con side: a terribly uninspiring look at those references put to use in the authors overworked, unrealistic and extremely disappointing drawings.
A Favorite!.......2007-01-24
The Artist's Complete Guide to Facial Expression by Gary Faigin is one of my favorite art books because it isn't limited to a particular medium. My goal as an artist/illustrator is to portray people as realistically as possible, and this book is filled with hundreds of pictures of expressions along with the facial muscles that produce those expressions. The demonstrations show the artist how to portray even the subtlest emotion. But this book isn't just for artists whose style is realistic; artists who prefer cartooning can also benefit by understanding how to translate complex expressions into simple lines.
Lots of good stuff!.......2007-01-13
Love this book, saw improvements within the first hour of reading it. I love the breakdown of the whole head into parts, then the parts are broken down even further. I was also impressed with the "common mistakes" referred to in the book that were my common mistakes!
Very usable information, not too technical, and in addition to helping pin down the emotion you're trying to add to a face, it contains a lot of practical advice to improve the overall "realistic" look of a portrait.
A must for portrait artists!.......2007-01-09
Most of the books on drawing the human head rely on classical knowledge about proportions and features that was passed on since the greek masters. This book complements this knowledge with very thorough and insightful information about emotions and their effect on the human expression. Not all portraitees keep a neutral expression on their faces during a session, especially children. Now I am much more confident when facing such tasks!

My 5-year old grand daughter loved it!.......2006-07-20
When my grand daughter comes to visit, I like to create a fun environment for her. I bought "How To Draw Funny Faces" for her, and she loved it. Usually she spends no more than 10 minutes on a project or game, but she spent close to an hour drawing the various faces in the book and then hung them on my refrigerator. Great for kids to learn to draw and fun.
Mediocre at best.......2006-06-04
I was expecting much more from this book. It rehashes the same expressions over and over again. No directions on how to actually make a funny face, such as changing the expressions of features i.e. raised eyebrows, crossed eyes, dimples at mouth, funny ears. I was disappointed and wouldn't buy this book again.
grandsons loved it!.......2006-02-28
Even the little one is sitting down to try and draw the funny faces . The parents are having fun too.
Kid's Play.......2005-08-18
This does not have the most interesting cartoon characters but it is a book that kids can pick up on their own & do very basic cartoon faces without any help.
Customer Reviews:
Drawing Faces is Fabulous.......2006-01-11
This book's illustrations are very colorful and beautifully laid out. From caricatures to torn paper collage, this is a great little book that will jumpstart lots of ideas. Mediums discussed include pencil, colored pencil, computer graphics, pen/ink, pastels, tempera, acrylic, watercolor, paper collage, pastel scratch, printing, and paper sculpting.

Book Description
Called "the perfect reference book" by Art News and Reviews, Stephen Rogers Peck's classic Atlas of Human Anatomy for the Artist has served for almost forty years as the standard manual for students exploring the intricacies of the human form. The beautifully illustrated Atlas of Facial Expression expands upon the material in Peck's earlier book to provide a detailed guide to the complexities of facial expression. Illustrated with fifty pages of drawings depicting musculature and facial expressions and sixteen pages of photographs of heads sculptured in clay, the book analyzes facial behavior, ranging from the sardonic smile to the lustful leer, from day-dreaming to screaming, from nausea to cold sweat, and more. Artists, art students, actors, writers, and anyone else interested in the art of relating emotion to the physiology of the face will find this volume indispensable.
Customer Reviews:
Outdated book.......2006-07-21
The images are a few quick sketches, and not well organized. I have appreciated a little gallery of 16 clay models. I would suggest you a better book by Gairy Faigin.
A good work, but not an Atlas.......2000-09-24
Over all I would recommend this book. However, it is not by any means a exhaustive effort. Facial drawings are charcoal and, in my opinion, lack the necessary detail. The author only skimmed over one extremely important aspect of human nature--sexual interest and attraction. Still, there is enough in this book to make me feel that it was worth the price.
Book Description
This guide encourages students to forget about creating a likeness, and instead, to concentrate on seeing and drawing the big shapes of dark and light. The likenesses will follow. In a clear, step-by-step format, with the help of nine start-to-finish portrait demonstrations, readers will learn: * Easy, basic pencil and charcoal techniques * How to draw each feature of the face * How to communicate various facial expressions * Techniques for working from live models * How to draw a variety of people, different poses and lighting conditions
Customer Reviews:
For beginners I guess.......2004-06-04
I don't care for the type of drawings in this book. They do not have good quality in them. They are sketchy, and very basic. I believe, that whatever you are learning, be it in paint, pastel or pencil, the examples better be what you would like to achieve. I don't want my drawings to look like the ones in the book, they are a bad example of what I would like to accomplish.
I don't feel I learned anything from this. I can't draw from circles and shapes. I need the real thing, with light and shadow. If you want to learn to draw people, start with yourself in the mirror or better yet, have a friend pose for you if he or shee can. Drawing from life is the best way to learn. But, if you need a book, get an artist's anatomy book. The stuff in this book is common sense anyway. I am not patient to start off so basic. I like to just dive in and see what happens and learn from there. I hope this book will help others who don't know how to draw.
Great book for building skills in portraiture.......2000-08-02
My preteen daughter loves to draw but most of her work was cartoonish. I wanted something to help her learn the skills of realistic drawing, especially portaits. This book was exactly what I was looking for. It includes faces from babies to elderly people and discusses technique and perspective. We enjoyed the studies of faces expressing various emotions. The narrative helps a developing artist learn how to look at spacing and shading and discusses supplies. There are sections on mouths, ears, noses as well as complete studies. There is a lot of content for the money.
