Sarah Simblet >> Anatomy for the Artist

Inside the human frame

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...

– More than 250 specially commissioned photographs and 100 drawings are used to reveal and celebrate the body
– Drawings and photographs interact to illustrate the relationship between the surface appearance of the human form and the complexities of its underlying structure
– Practical drawing lessons explain how to visualise and draw each part of the body
– Ten masterpieces examine world-famous paintings, to explore each artist's attitude, knowledge and use of anatomy
