Michael Mattesi explains clothing through the FORCE Drawing system, supported by illustrations from Michael Mattesi and Mritunjay Varun. The book is intended for artists working in games, animation, film, and fine art.

Book Overview
FORCE Fabric: How to Draw Clothes is an art instruction book by Michael Mattesi. It is the seventh book in the FORCE series according to the supplied PDF text, while the companion listing identifies it as part of the Force Drawing series.
The book begins with FORCE fundamentals and develops a practical drawing process. It covers form, three-dimensional space, clothing exits, wrapping, seams, structural accoutrements, folds, fit types, and fabric texture.
Assignments appear throughout the chapters, giving readers opportunities to apply the methods to clothed figures and fabric studies.

- Form, volume, clothing exits, wrapping, necklines, arms, waistlines, and pants hems.
- Fold types including I-Fold, A-Fold, U-Fold, J-Fold, S-Fold, X-Fold, and O-Fold.
- Tight-fit, medium-fit, and loose-fit clothing, with assignments for each category.

Why This Book Matters
Clothed figures are central to visual work in animation, video games, film, and fine art. Understanding how fabric moves and folds helps artists represent clothing as part of the figure rather than as a separate surface.
The book connects drawing fundamentals with practical clothing concerns such as fit, gravity, seams, wrapping, volume, and texture. Its exercises and organized chapter structure support focused study and reference-based practice.
