Katherine,

Katherine Clarks book shows you how to work with a simple egg as a beginning. One source you should consider is a place where they make concrete garden casts. Get a little putti (baby sculpture) or anything that has good round contours.

Katherine Clark's book, has simple diagrams, and shows you how to set up painting from life.

Harold Speed's book shows you invaluable measuring and drawing techniques. His painting and drawing books describes first painting in monochrome and then in a limited palette.

Get those and then after a bit you can wallow in Chris's beautiful colors.
