Overview
  • Welcome to my class, "Dynamic Anatomy for Artists - Drawing the Muscles of Arm."

    I am extremely excited to bring you these lessons on drawing the muscles.  Learning anatomy isn't easy but it will vastly improve your ability to draw impressive character designs and comic book superheroes.

    What You Will Learn in This Class - 

    • How to Draw the Muscles
    • Basic Terminology
    • Visual Patterns
    • Form + Volume
    • Stylizing the Work
    • Efficient Ways to Improve

    This class is designed to simplify the process of drawing the arm anatomy.  I will teach you the basic forms that I use to draw the arm from memory and you will get access to all the art files to study along with.  Including diagrams with all the terminology.

    Don't beat yourself up though!  Just try to improve a little each day and commit a muscle or two to memory here and there.  Consistency is the most effective way to improve in my opinion.  Rome wasn't built in a day, right?! ;)

    After you work through the anatomy breakdowns I will show you how to implement this into a few examples. We will work on these to help you transition your new skills into your own stylized version.

    I am here if you have any questions and I can't wait to see what you come up with.  More lessons on human anatomy are on the way!  Next we will be covering Leg Anatomy so I hope you will join me for that class as well! :)

    Sincerely,

    Robert A. Marzullo
