Art 1 and 2D Foundations:

Anatomical Sketchbook Series

Target Goal:

  • I can apply light and dark values within a combination of contour and gestural lines to form figures in a sketch that replicate part of the human body.

Directions:

  • Use google to locate images of the following skeletal structures: Hand, Foot.
  • Complete a TOTAL of 4 sketches. 2 of the human hand, and 2 of the human foot. 1 of each should be of the bones that make up that particular skeletal system, and 1 should be as they normally look, with flesh.
  • To the best of your ability, apply shading with various light and dark values throughout, as well as accurate, to scale sizing and proportion. Work large, and use all the space on your paper.
  • Clearly label each attempt.
  • Challenge: If you would like an additional challenge, try sketching the muscular systems that make up the hand and foot as well. (See example below).
