This is a link to a PDF of the full report SaraWaterer_511909_3-tutor-report. I’ve pulled out from the key points for me to look out and ideas for further research in the notes below. I’ve now had my report from my tutor Simon Manfield and I’m really happy to read that he felt my experiments with ink and bleach for the assignment piece worked well and were appropriate… I had been a bit worried! Overall I find the feedback rewarding and motivational and I appreciate the helpful pointers and suggestions. I’m glad to have discovered how valuable this kind of resource can be. As it was produced for artists rather, than medical professionals, it gives a lot of useful illustrations showing the effects of foreshortening, for example. There is very much more to this book, including detailed studies of the trunk and lower limbs. (Imagine a mother standing with the weight of a baby on one hip.)

To me, this isn’t a book to sit down and read in full. It can only help to gain some understanding about what is going on under the skin. It’s already become apparent to me that some of my drawings don’t look quite right because the limbs don’t always connect in a totally natural way at the shoulders and hips. It also examines the centre of gravity and proportions, including both adults and children and the differences between males and females. It is a thoroughly comprehensive guide to the skeleton, muscles and joints of the body, and also looks at how the neck and spine moves, facial angles and a range of movements including swinging, twisting, walking and running. My friend Stella has loaned me Anatomy for the Artist by Jenó Barcsay (Little, Brown 2004) and this looks such a useful resource that I have ordered my own copy. Make notes on how you can use this information to improve your figure drawing. Look at anatomy books or do a web search for anatomy images and see what you can find.
