In this follow-up book to his first volume, Portrait Sculpting: Anatomy & Expression in Clay, Philippe Faraut expands on modeling the human face in water-based clay featuring more than 100 new sculptures. Designed for the advanced artist, this text utilizes nearly 600 photographs including 64 full-page images to analyze the requirements for capturing a likeness. Emphasis is place on an in-depth study of facial anatomy critical in developing compelling expressions and bringing life to three-dimensional representations of the face. Additional studies are included to show successful treatments of hair and drapery, as well as the effect of the aging process.
