Features: With the development of plastic arts into the modern era, sketching has increasingly demonstrated its significant value and status in the current artistic realm. As a means or form of plastic arts, sketching plays a crucial role in the creative process of artists with its unique charm. As a fundamental course in plastic arts, sketching instruction also carries a vital mission in nurturing students' growth. Sketching (plaster sculptures) are an essential component of the foundational teaching in art academies and a mandatory subject for art enthusiasts seeking admission to these institutions. The characteristics of plaster sculptures include their simplicity in color, classical forms, stable shapes, and a clear hierarchy of simplicity and complexity. These distinctions from real-life models are highly beneficial for students to conduct in-depth research, observation, and analysis during their sketching learning process. This enables them to scientifically grasp the principles of plastic arts and the techniques of sketching representation. The most valuable part of this book should be the (demonstration illustrations) of plaster sculpture sketches and the (drawing process) of plaster sculpture sketches.
