new thread. let's assume that the reader has no experience with art outside the mandatory high school shit

I'll post what I've got planned for my reading
>Perspective
Perspective Made Easy by Ernest R. Norling
>Anatomy
Figure Drawing for All it's Worth by Andrew Loomis
>Lighting
Light, Shade, & Shadow by E. L. Koller
>Color
Painter's Guide to Color by Stephen Quiller

I think these would be a good starting point for graphic art, anyone else think so?

Don't fuck with books. Just copy works by masters until you git good

Swap LooMEME for Figure drawing, design and invention book from Hampton, really solid stuff.
>>

My main problem with Hampton's design and invention is that he doesn't teach proportions, it's not really an amazing beginner book

Lomeme -> Hampton -> George Bridgman's complete guide for drawing from life

That's what I would recommend as a "foolproof guide on drawing the body" for a beginner, and of course a lot of gestures on pose sites.

okay, so that's gonna be my study
does anyone have similar for the lighting, color, & perspective?

Get lessons for perspective and anatomy and then read van goghs letters, they help. Technique is not everything.
