Drawing PFA

In order to draw the human figure well, you need to have a good knowledge of human anatomy. Yet many artists today still hang on to the myth that good figure drawing does not involve studying anatomy. Perhaps the reason so many artists feel this way is because they never saw first hand what a big difference a little anatomical detail can make to their sketches.

In this article, I’d like to give you some quick but important points about the human body and how they pertains to your figure drawing.

Of all the aspects of human anatomy, the muscles will undoubtedly have the most impact on how your drawings look, as it is at the very surface. One thing to remember about muscles is that they always pull; every movement that you make is the direct result of one or more muscles contracting and pulling on your bones. What this means is that when the figure you are drawing is engaged in dynamic action, you must pay attention to the muscles involved and depict them accordingly.

For example, if you are drawing a boxer who is throwing a right hook, you must ask yourself, “Which muscles are pulling in order to make this action possible?” Then you would draw those muscles as flexing. In this case, the flexing muscles would be the pectoralis major, the deltoid, and the biceps, to name a few. In most cases, a particular movement will involve multiple muscle groups and the more muscles you can depict, the more convincing your drawings will be. Without this, your drawings will look static and lifeless.

Your ability to recognize and draw these muscles will improve as your knowledge of anatomy increases. As a beginner, you might only be able to draw big muscles like the bicep or shoulder, but as you progress in your study of anatomy, you’ll be able to add in finer details like the supinator longus and the anconeus. This will give your drawing an extra dimension of realism.

Just a light knowledge of anatomy can do wonders for your drawing. For example, there are many muscles in the neck but there is one particular muscle that artists should pay attention to. It is the sternocleidomastoid. It connects behind the ear and attaches to the collar bone. This muscle is very prominent and can be seen on almost everyone. Simply by adding this one muscle to your drawings of the neck, you can instantly make it ten times more realistic. This should show you how useful human anatomy is to the figure drawing artist.

Knowledge of architectural designs
During the construction of buildings is very essential to plan for the various phases to make a huge impact with regard to construction. The architectural layouts for drawings that give a clear idea of construction including all essential things related to it. In fact, architectural layouts drawn by architect responsible for efficient construction of a building. In other words we can say that when an architect works for his client, the architectural layouts, signed by him offers the customer a better understanding of what the structure of a building looks.

Therefore, if the layout of the architecture is ready, it confirmed that the future development of the building or anything can have an agreement not only from the client, but also from local agencies.

Drawing of the architectural symbols
An architectural drafter should consider from a variety of topics while using architectural drawing symbols for drawing and construction work. Application of architectural drawing symbols requires to be fully familiar with orthographic presentation which includes relationship projection views, sections reflected views, developed views, etc. Use of architectural drawing symbols and method for its construction should be known to the architectural drafters. While drawing with these symbols, one should have sufficient knowledge of the history related to architecture. This consists of them build practice, which has succeeded, and also those who have failed the test of success. These symbols should also apply the principles of design. They must also know the building materials, properties, constraints, and other uses. Architectural drawing object symbol is not only a mechanical and neither it is different from architectural design. These drawing symbols and the establishment of its visual elements must be in accordance with mechanical capacity drawing elements.

Pictures for architectural works
Drawing in architecture requires implementation of architectural working drawings in all plans and elevations, and also detail required of the contractor, including specifications, so that an estimate can be stacked for the construction of the building. These are architectural drawings should display all dimensions and also needs to be scaled correctly. Fun of these constructions must be clear and complete the drawing so that the contractor may not charge any additional fee from the owner of the bid for the job in the architectural working drawings. They contain on the first floor plan, which is the first plan to be drawn. The second floor plan is derived from the first level and they run over the first level or close to them, as far as possible, to carry the weight down to the Foundation. Basement plan is the basis for the structure and the first part to be built. Next are the exterior called heights.
