Today is book review day. I have a few books in my Art Library that specifically relate to classical 19th century methods of teaching drawing and painting in the classical tradition. Juliette Aristides gives us a tour 0f both drawing and painting techniques based upon classical training in her beautifully illustrated books. On each page she uses examples of Old Masters and respected contemporary artists to demonstrate and teach the classical methods of realist drawing and painting. If you are interested in learning from the classic techniques of the past, then give these two books a look and add them to your art library. Amazon.com has both of these volumes at very reasonable prices.
