I don't know if anyone practices the DaVinci/Michelangelo style of drawing anymore... the ability to render realistic figures and scenes with just a pencil or charcoal. Hogarth's books help to achieve that skill. An interesting class for the Hall of Fame. It would be interesting to see the nominees for each year. What are the regulations/qualifications? Are they posted somewhere? Are there capsule biographies for the others? Burne Hogarth also wrote and drew some excellent instructional books, not just for comics.
