## Description

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

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Why did I pass on this book for so long???
*by  on Reviewed in the United States August 20, 2009*

For over 20 years I saw this book on store shelves and it didn't resonate with me. I think I was intimidated by it. In the past year, though, I saw reviews of other books where the reviewers kept referring to and comparing to the books of Hogarth. Then I came across his entire series of books in my local library and took a deeper look at "Dynamic Anatomy" and "Dynamic Figure Drawing". What I didn't realize until actually reading these books is that Hogarth makes sure you understand not only the anatomy, but every defining subtle detail of the human figure that is normally taken for granted and not consciously identified. Moreover, he draws and describes each part in three dimensional shapes and uses metaphorical descriptions that can't be forgotten. The man was genius for not only being able to see things the way he did, but more so for being able to articulate it to others as well as he did.Best of all, in combination with "Dynamic Figure Drawing", he teaches us how to build a person in any pose in your mind and then render and sculpt that form in three dimensions on paper (or screen) without any need to reference anything. Don't try to do it with "Dynamic Figure Drawing" alone. I started with that book and couldn't wait to jump into "Dynamic Anatomy" to get a better understanding of the fundamentals.The books are so good (and affordable), that even though I could have easily continued to check them out from the library, I purchased them to have the ultimate reference on hand at all times. They're a must for anyone rendering the human form.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ perfect but, it has to be be the 1990 print.
*by  on Reviewed in the United States February 5, 2012*

thanks a lot to the reviewer that wrote "...The original version, '90 printing, is ISBN 0823015513, 232 " It is THE book.A piece of art. If you are a beginner and you need colors and all that sugary post production to be motivated to draw, forget it. This book is art in itself. I first saw this book on an Italian edition on my father's library circa 1979-95. This one is even better. If you simply repeat the models that are in there to do your own versions of the images, I can almost guarantee that you will feel that your gaze has changed when you look at people. Yes, his anatomy responds to a sort of graphic methodology, call it, a bit codified.. It has to be. Just don't get dependent on the aesthetic code implied in it and use the tool instead of you being used by it.The cover for this book looks far better than the online image (the one I am talking about can only be found used) the blue background and bright orange lettering works well and on the picture I saw online I was very disappointed, and bought it in spite of that. ... In real life.... The blue is not flat but calmly pearled, and the lettering is also far more subdued than the saturated image you see online. That is the only detail. It's great.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Hogarth!
*by  on Reviewed in the United States August 29, 2019*

Burne Hogarth has a very stylized way of drawing the figure that takes some time getting used to. I started with Andrew Loomis (he takes a more realistic and less stylized approach) to learn some of the rudimentary aspects of anatomy and then when I delved into Hogarth's book I was able to digest the information and understand what he was trying to portray through his drawings. If it's your first time learning human anatomy I wouldn't recommend, but if you already have a basic understanding then you will find this book extremely useful in your pursuit of drawing the human figure in motion. I like Bridgman as well but I think I actually prefer Hogarth, he mentions several subtleties in drawing the figure that one may overlook in real life due to a lack of true observation.
