Course Description

Overview

Dynamic Anatomy for Artists - Muscles of the Torso 

Welcome to my class on Drawing the Anatomy of the Torso.  In this class you will learn how to simplify this process with basic forms and concepts.  This class is meant to teach you the primary muscles of the torso as it pertains to drawing the human body.  Keep in mind this is a stylized and dynamic approach that I teach for students that want to draw characters from their imagination.  It can also help for traditional figure drawing but I will be explaining with a more stylized approach.

What you can expect to learn in this class - 

  • How to Draw the Torso with Primitive Shapes
  • Superficial Muscles of the Torso
  • Male and Female Anatomy
  • Orientation and Landmarks to Memorize
  • Rendering the Forms
  • Heroic Vs. Realistic Versions

I am here to help if you have any questions.  Make sure to submit your art so I can see what you need the most help with.

Thank you for considering this class and good luck with your art!
