A gem - diamond in the rough December 11, 2009

This is a perfect book especially for those who draw without formal instruction. The books 'Drawn from Life' are notes made by a master teacher to students after a animation drawing class. Many examples include student drawings with the corrections of the instructor. The class and the instructor used ball point pen for drawing so the illustrations are perfectly clear. But the drawings are only half the story. The lively accompanying commentary has the feeling of informal speech. The stories are compelling making this a good read especially considering the fact that these are drawing books. Though I am not an animator, but a scene designer, I find that I have applied the principles taught here in filling my design sketches with figures that seem to move, making my scene designs come to life.

Not just a book with pictures. It's a full compendium of the Disney classes that Stanchfield gave to us. Just not forget to buy the book 1 too.

This is a great theory book. I thought the book would enphasize the drawings, but I think the drawings are small and low resolution....Great for animation tips and theory.
