    Paint Free Art books (pdf)

    Hi everybody,

    I just read aboute this free art books here (Thank you very much, Whiterabbit ). They are classic books in this area, pretty old, but sometimes old is gold. I even found that I have one of them, that was given to me by my grandmother, some 30 years ago:

    Here are some free art books for you budding artist/illustrators Thry are instruction books by master illustrator Andrew Loomis. All the books are now out of print but have been scanned and placed in pdf documents for your enjoyment and learning:

    Andrew Loomis influenced generations of artists and did illustration for Saturday Evening Post and other major magazines. If you're looking for art instruction on an Art School level, check out these free book downloads.

    You can download the following titles as a single rar file:

    • Fun With a Pencil

    • Figure Drawing For All It’s Worth

    • Drawing The Head & Hands

    • Successful Drawing

    • Creative Illustration

    • The Eye Of The Painter
    Download link: here.














    I hope that some of us will enjoy .
