In the follow up to his popular figure drawing books, The Anatomy of Style and Figures from Life, comes Drawing from Photos, Patrick's latest volume of step-by-step drawing techniques.

Each step-by-step includes a model posing to refer to as you draw along, recreating a virtual workshop from Patrick's eye view as he shares his methods, insights and interpretations to produce drawings with style and confidence.
