Why anatomy is important for drawing emotions
Why anatomy is important for drawing emotions - Drawing portraits is easy; every child can do that. However, drawing professional portraits requires good knowledge of constructive drawing, anatomy for artists and proficient tonal rendering skills. When it comes to depicting emotions in portraits, you have to know the anatomy because without facial muscles there would be no emotions on a face. The good thing is - there are only a few muscles you need to know and it is not necessary to learn their Latin names. All you need is a good understanding of how facial muscles pull the skin and which muscles are responsible for displaying various emotions. This topic is taught in depth in the Life Drawing Academy Correspondence Course
