Ruccian Art Vol1 Mario D Rucci

I wanted to have a more affordable version. This is it: a gray tone version. Most of the artwork is made up of drawings; so, this is not very drastic. And, besides, we do not need color to enjoy the form. This book is about Factual, Manual Depiction (drawing, painting, printing). Depiction classification is in relation to form, extent, and position. The form is inactive, animal (equine, in my case), or human. The extent is a body part, a full figure (arrangement of body parts), or a composition (arrangement of figures). And, the position (posture, approach, method) used when producing the depiction is from imitation, from observation, or from visualization. During the time I was drawing, painting, and printing, I did not cover to the same extent all the possible topics in depiction. What motivated me predominantly was the human form. So, still following the above classification system, I have partitioned my pictures into 18 chapters.
