Regardless of whether you are interested in animation or not, this two-volume collection of the legendary lectures from one Disney's most well-known animators is not to be missed. Presented as accessible chunks of wisdom and accompanied by drawings by Walt and others, this book will help you capture gesture and emotion when drawing from life. Practical art books often talk about 'gesture drawing' but few really teach you how to do it. In this book you'll get an excellent grounding.
