Summary: Great Illustrations from an eBay Artist
Review: I first discovered this artist on ebay as he was selling original pieces of his art online. He has a great understanding of the medium and a good understanding of the human figure.

His photorealistic illustrations are a treat for the eye and this book showcases just a sample of what he can do with just a pencil in his hand. This is a good book to have if you're looking for great art and beautiful women.

Summary: erotic art - so talented
Review: This book is a fine work of art, a compilation of some really amazing charcoal masterpieces (a lot of these are basically all of those things in one picture) by Erik Drudwyn. There is a small introduction in the front of the 50 page full-color book written in both English and German... other than that there are no other words in the book (except on a back page there are titles of every piece and the type of medium used to create it).

This book is exclusively women, most topless or semi-nude or in seductive pose. All of the models are incredibly beautiful women and the wardrobes are equally eye-catching.

His style is unique, he individually takes each strand of hair... and I am talking... each strand of hair... and gives it highlights and midtones and makes it look so real you can almost touch it. I was impressed with his impressions of hair than anything.

He has a couple pieces of art where he created a lens-flare type effect that I really didn't care for (and neither did my friend who saw them too) but art is subjective and I am sure others will be quite fond of it.

I see this artist going a long long way. I recommend this erotic art book for any collection. His style is promptly recognizable and a majority of the faces he creates are highly realistic and believable.

Definitely a good buy. And cheap too.
