today. Using superb specially commissioned photographs of male and female models together with historical and contempory works of art and her own illustrations, Sarah shows us how to look
inside the human frame to map its muscle groups skeletal strength balance poise and grace.Selected drawings superimposed over photographs reveal fascinating relationships between external
appearance and internal structure. Six drawing classes guide the reader to see the human body afresh offering techniques and attitudes that imagiatively show how to observe and draw the
skeleton, head, ribcage, pelvis, hands, and feet. By investigating ten Masterworks the author shows the knowledge and ideas of different artists across tie ranging from Holbein’s “Christ
Entombed” to Edward Hopper’s “Hotel Room”. Each masterclass presents a photographed model set in the same pose so that anatomical comparisons can be made. Understanding anatomy is often the
key to an artist’s understanding and interpretation of the body. This imaginative modern reference book will enhance the drawing and painting techniques of artists and every level.
