Drawing and Anatomy

This is going to be my final Cast Painting. I really learned a lot about drawing during the block-in stage of this drawing. The copy I used for the transfer to canvas is almost double the size of the actual drawing (the painted figure will be 25" high).



Below is from from a anatomy drawing workshop at school. Andy Amerol came from California to teach it. We posed a male in the morning and a female in the afternoon with the same pose and then proceeded to draw them, followed by a layer of vellum with the skeletal structure, and then finally a layer of vellum with the muscular structure. It was a great workshop and I learned a lot about anatomy and comparative anatomy in gender.
