Why is studying anatomy so useful in art?

It’s because by doing so, we understand the shape and volume of the things we draw, not just the outward appearance. By knowing how our skin is shaped around our skeleton, frame, and flesh, we can better comprehend the shadows and highlights we see and decide to exaggerate or minimize them, based on the 3-dimensional depth we are trying to add.

This is one of the most essential things that distinguishes someone who draws flat images, and a master who has learned to add depth, volume, contrast, and a perception of dimension, carefully shaping the images they see and conveying that understanding onto the canvas or paper they use.

That’s a lot of beautiful words, but it all comes down to this: Study the skull and your portraits will get better.

In this course, you will go over some theory lessons that help you understand the anatomy of the human head. You will dive deeply into aspects like the crevices and bulges in our skull, which define cheekbones, eye sockets, and more.

Added to these in-depth classes is a personal touch, a slight sense of humor, and a light-hearted way of explaining the art theories to make it more entertaining and comprehensive.
