Draw The Human Body

Description

Learn anatomy through art! This up-and-coming series from ArtK12 provides a fun and memorable overview of the human body through illustrated drawings, Latin translations, light-hearted puns, cartoons, and more. The approach is incremental, beginning with “the big picture” before adding the finer details, color, and labeling. The course begins with an overview of vital and non-vital organs before diving into the various human organs. Two editions are available: Draw the Human Body: Organs (with Reproductive Organs) and Draw the Human Body: Organs (without Reproductive Organs). The content is identical, except for the inclusion/exclusion of the reproductive organs section. In this section, both male and female reproductive organs are accurately illustrated, with a focus on their anatomical function. Included with your purchase is a PDF download with a starter template for each drawing. These optional templates may be helpful for younger learners, or anyone who needs more support to get started. Students will need unlined paper, pencil, ruler, eraser, pen, and colored pencils or crayons to complete the lessons. This is a well-done overview of the human body. I am excited to see this new series develop!
