Anatomy;Many Artists especially Beginner Artists struggle with body proportions from time to time, whether it be when drawing poses or perspective. Most artists tend to use References in order to make their artworks more dynamic and much more pleasing to the eye. But what are References?
References are simply a pictorial of the object you want to draw. Drawing from your imagination is a learning process that requires you to learn several concepts from observation, perspective drawing, color interpretation, etc.
It’s an incredible amount to learn and typically the first step is to sharpen your “observational” skills by drawing what you see. This allows the brain to observe and pay attention to the details of the object you are drawing.
In using anatomy, there are a few tips to remember:
What is the general shape
Is the texture of the object?
How do I communicate this texture?
How do I communicate the form?
Where is the light source?
What angle is the light source coming from?
Proportion of the body relative to the head?
What is the shape of the muscle?
What is the length of the arm? Leg?
What are the proportions of the body masses?
What is the the general shape of each body part?
Keep these things in mind and You can improve art step by step!
