ABSTRACT

Applying anatomy to art requires understanding not only anatomical postures but also the shape in various movement. However, anatomy is too complex from a medical point of view, and it is difficult to directly apply moving bones and muscle shapes to the surface forms. In this article, 41 bone structures were selected as indicators to solve these problems. Muscles were classified according to location or mass rather than function, and deep-layer muscles were omitted by grouping them into chunks with superficial-layer muscles. The muscles of posterior scapular region were included in the back, and the lateral mass was newly added in the case of the forearm and thigh. It is expected that this method will be helpful for visual artists learning anatomy for the first time to minimize academic pressure and understand various forms according to movement.
