Anatomy
Over the past couple of weeks I've been studying anatomy from the following book "A Complete Guide: Anatomy for the Artist". I focused my studies on the major bones and joints of the human body to help improve my understanding of how the human skeleton works. This will help improve my drawings as this will help improve my proportions, roughs, gestures and blocking out characters in my artwork.
I decided to focus on the key points artists use to mark out proportions when starting a new drawing. these points are the skull, clavicle, thorax, scapula, elbow, hands, feet, pelvis and the knee. I did by best to replicate the illustrations shown in the book
Skeleton
Skull
Shoulder
Hand
Thorax
Pelvis
Knee
Foot
I really enjoyed this exercise as it gave me a chance to experiment with what I've learnt over the past couple of months such as new shading techniques. This has definitely improved my knowledge and understanding of the human anatomy although I feel I need to improve my skills in drawing the feet. I struggled drawing the feet in this task and this is a area, which needs improving in my work.
