Convert the complicated shapes into easy shapes say circle, triangle or rectangle now add volume to those shapes. Refining those shapes with time will eventually make you an expert in anatomy read less

Sketch artist with 5 years experience

Use an anatomy book to understand what's below the surface but think about each muscle in 3D. Don't draw the muscles as a series of lines. Draw them as sculpted spheres, boxes and cylinders. With that being said, you don't always have to actually draw spheres and boxes on the page.

The human body is a complicated and fascinating thing to sketch and draw. It helps to have a solid understanding of the different parts of the human anatomy, as well as their placement on the body. In order to learn how to draw anatomy correctly, you should first study from life models or from reference images. Draw from life models if you have the opportunity, as it will give you a sense of realism in your sketches. Drawing from reference images is an excellent way to practice without having a live model handy. It’s important that you take time with both techniques so that you can practice your skills and gain a better understanding of how the parts work together. read less
