Editorial Reviews

Amazon.com Review

Anatomy for the Artist is like having your own life-drawing studio in the privacy of your home. Carefully constructed photographs of the human form allow you to see the structure and function of the skeleton and main muscle groups. Six imaginative drawing lessons, each supported with photography, show how to portray the bones, head, rib cage, pelvis, hands, and feet in perspective, from different angles, both in still poses and in movement.

About the Author

Dr Sarah Simblet is a fine artist, writer, broadcaster and anatomist, whose work explores the relationship between science, history and art. The author of Drawing for the Artist and Botany for the Artist, and co-author of The New Sylva, Sarah is dedicated to sharing and encouraging visual intelligence in others through her drawings, teaching and broadcasting worldwide. She is Director of Studies for Fine Art at Christ Church, Oxford, and Tutor in Anatomy at the Ruskin School of Art.

Must have for an artist's library!

Must have for an artist's library!
Must have for all artists' libraries. it's a wonderful reference with a mixture of photos and illustrations. My favorite part is the bone overlays on photos they are so cool and helpful to learn and study on from. It focus more on human structure and bones, wish there was more overlays on the muscles only for a couple of them though but still great. If you've never taken a studio figure drawing class or drawn a from nude models/photos, or just not taken a sex ed class you might giggle at the torso, pelvic/genitals section, something that is kinda never addressed in many artist anatomy books (could explain some of deviant art's lack of understanding at least)Over all I love it and recommend it highly, sometimes I love just picking it up and doing studies just from it
Thank you for your feedback

O livro é de material excelente. Chegou bem embalado e sem atrasos. Como comprei usado, a capa está amarelada e um pouco amassada. Mas esta informação estava na descrição antes da compra. Em matéria de conteúdo, a qualidade das folhas e imagens são ótimas. Internamente está perfeito. Ele é apenas um material complementar. Mas, essencial.
