The award-winning classic reference to drawing artistic anatomy from the acclaimed cartoonist hailed as the “Michelangelo of the comic strip”—now revised and updated with never-before-published drawings and new material
While traditional anatomical texts for artists tend to explain muscular and skeletal structure from a medical standpoint, Dynamic Anatomy explores the expressive structure of the human form from the artist’s point of view.
Through 350 remarkable illustrations, Dynamic Anatomy explains the anatomical details of male and female figures in motion and at rest, always stressing the human form in space. By emphasizing the relationship of mass to movement, this essential book provides sound practical methods for drawing human forms that come alive on paper.
Dynamic Anatomy covers: • art history • male and female figures • proportions and anatomical details • surface forms • and more!
Burne Hogarth’s unique teaching methods in Dynamic Anatomy, part of his comprehensive Dynamic Drawing Series, are indispensable for every professional artist, art student, teacher, painter, sculptor, illustrator, cartoonist, animator, and serious amateur.
Burne Hogarth’s masterful Dynamic Drawing Series is an invaluable resource for any artist: DRAWING DYNAMIC HANDS • DRAWING THE HUMAN HEAD • DYNAMIC ANATOMY • DYNAMIC FIGURE DRAWING • DYNAMIC LIGHT AND SHADE • DYNAMIC WRINKLES AND DRAPERY
Burne Hogarth (1911–1996), hailed as the “Michelangelo of the comic strip,” was one of the most iconic cartoonists and influential arts educators of the twentieth century. Best known for his innovative illustrations of the syndicated Sunday Tarzan, Hogarth broke fresh ground in the newspaper comic strip by combining classicism, expressionism, and narrative in a powerful, new way. As cofounder of the School of Visual Arts—one of the world’s leading art schools—he brought his unique approach to art into the classroom. Hogarth’s art has been exhibited in many important galleries around the world including the Louvre in the Museé des Arts Décoratifs and Marseilles’ Bibliothèque.
