ART 3112 Anatomy for Artists and Illustrators (Muscular System)


2 semester hours

Drawing requires answers to a number of questions. How to suggest three dimensions in a two-dimensional format? How to imply movement in a product that is still? What to omit and what to include to achieve a given effect? The purpose of this course is to provide a basic understanding of the human musculoskeletal system through a combination of lectures, labs, and directed studio assignments. The hope is that by better understanding human structure and motion students find their own answers to these questions. 

Lab fee.

Prerequisite:  ART 2154  or consent of instructor
