1 Barker, Kathy. DRAWING AND PAINTING THE CLOTHED FIGURE.
Crowood, Ramsbury, Marlborough, 2005, first edition. 
192 pp, 11" H, soft cover. ISBN 1861267754 Profusely illustrated in colour and b&w. "The clothed figure is a fascinating subject for beginner and experienced artist alike. While the human body offers a physical and psychological point of interes t, the clad figure gives even further scope with which to tell a story. As well as enhancing or stressing a particular body posture or movement, clothes can be used to portray an individuality of character, convey external elements, or be enj o y e d i n purely decorative terms in the form of shape, pattern, texture and colour. Working from the naked body through to the draped and attired model, this book is essential because it focuses uniquely on the figure and cloth while addressing t he p ra c ti calities of using various drawing and painting techniques to transfer what you see onto the two-dimensional surface. Achieve correct proportion through measurement; Increase knowledge of body form; Draw the draped figure using line an d t one wi th mi xed media; Use mark-making to describe fabric both in texture and in colour; Paint clothes and figures using varied painting methods; Develop individual expression and visual language." Interior - llight double bump to top co rner of text blo ck, oth erwise clean and tight with no other ownership marks. Exterior - light bump to top corner of coavers, light rubbing, very minor edge wear. Verey Good-
