In this book, the human body is shown from a new perspective: from bone structure to musculature, from anatomical detail to the body in motion. Provides a simplified and practical vision of the human skeleton to help readers in their drawing studies. It will fuel readers' imagination and enrich their observational skills as they draw the living form.
With more than 200 beautiful illustrations, Anatomy for the Artist is a comprehensive guide to drawing the human body with skill and sensitivity. Learn how the skeleton fits together, how the muscles and tendons work to support the body, how to achieve realistic skin texture and more. Each section is fully annotated with step-by-step explanations that will help you to create accurate images with ease.
