The must-have guide for all artists who draw the human figure!
In Morpho: Hands and Feet, artist and teacher Michel Lauricella presents a unique approach to learning to draw the human body. In this book, Lauricella focuses exclusively on the hands and feet—arguably the most popular and, for many, the most challenging parts of the body to draw successfully. Breaking the subject matter down into the underlying skeletal shapes, followed by the musculature, then the skin and fat, and finally, the veins, Lauricella offers multiple approaches—from simple forms to complex renderings—and a plethora of positions and gestures are included to help you improve your drawing skills.
Geared toward artists of all levels, from beginners through professionals, this handy, pocket-sized book will help spark your imagination and creativity. Whether your interest is in figure drawing, fine arts, fashion design, game design, or creating comic book or manga art, you will find this helpful book filled with actionable insights.
(Publisher’s Note: This book features an “exposed” binding style. This is intentional as it is designed to help the book lay flat as you draw.)

Great book for beginners.

Good quality book. Illustrations are excellent.

These books provide great references. And Morpho’s “Hands and Feet” is helping me as I try my hand at drawing hands while trying to get a good footing on things (no pun intended, perhaps?). But anyways, I really like the Morpho series. Great for intermediate level sketch artists or those looking to brush up on drawing after not having drawn for a while. Neat & compact. Can easily pack with you when travelling and the binding style is what I like about these too. You can conveniently lay them down as they remain propped open while sketching in your sketchbook.
“Hands and Feet” is the second book of the Morpho series that I’ve bought. “Simplified Forms” being the first one. I recently just finished that one and have now just started on this one now.
I still feel like I have a long road ahead before I feel like I’ve reached my goal/level. (I’d like to one day be able to draw hyper realistically and also to draw like Kim Jung Gi) But I feel like the journey never “ends” per se, as there’s always room to learn things.

Great book, but explanations are lacking. Requires some experience to find the book useful.

Corresponde às expectativas
Wondering-Wizard –
Small book, quick and easy reference on that subject so many find difficult to draw. The book explains why and offers an insight on combined structural and surface thinking. Many extreme views of hands and feet, showing what other books don’t, with interesting explanations and a more comprehensive understanding.

Seems like it has every hand or foot position you would ever want to draw. Good for artists like me who don’t always have a human model to copy from. Extremely insightful, just a heads up that it mostly shows simplified COMPLETE sketches of the hands and feet, and is not a step-by-step beginners book.
It does not explain how to draw the hands and feet… that’s up to the artist. But it DOES show correct proportions and I find it an invaluable resource.
Disco San Andreas –
Small, yet handy. Lots of nice illustrations of one the most difficult parts for artists.
Diana V –
I’ve had this book for a while now and carry it around with my journal. I feel my drawing technique has improved by using it.
Julia –
Molto completo
Ricardo –
Sehr gut aber leider nur in Englisch erhältlich
Gabe –
I just loved it, very easy to follow.
Mimi G –
Sweet little book. Tiny but has MANY hands and feet in it. Beautifully drawn and informative. This author can really draw and transmit information in those drawings. Some overlap with MORPHO big book (it has to, cos there’s hands and feet in anatomy) but there’s enough extra in here that its worth it in its own right.
