Review: A bridge between theory and practice - This is an excellent companion to the author's previous book, 'Classic Human Anatomy'. While the previous book focuses on detailed anatomy information, this book has more on applying anatomy in drawing the figure. I really like the chapters on landmarks, planes/structure, and movements with lots of nuggets of information that enable you to depict the human figure convincingly. The chapter on gesture drawing explains 8 different gesture drawing styles which will be particularly helpful for beginning and experienced artists alike. There's some overlapped anatomy contents between the 2 books, but 'Classic Human Anatomy in Motion' gives you better overview of joints, bones, and muscles besides further information on movements. For example, there is an in-depth discussion on face muscles in various facial expressions. Plus extra drawings and diagrams provide different views (front, side, 3/4) of anatomical parts in motion. The book is well designed with beautiful and colorful drawings on quality paper. In short, 'Classic Human Anatomy' is anatomy-in-theory. 'Classic Human Anatomy in Motion' is anatomy-in-practice. Applying anatomy in drawing the human figure requires patience and effort in building knowledge and getting better with proper practice. The author has done a great job with both books.
Review: Serious Art Instruction Book. Glad I got it. - Just purchased and overvewed the Kindle version of this book yesterday and can say that it is a serious art book. Great and extensive coverage on important topics of anatomy and gestures and poses, and lots of illustrations, which even in the Kindle version are crisp, clear, and will be very fun and useful to reproduce as excercises. It is almost 900 pages and it is very thorough instruction. Highly recommend for anyone seeking to get serious about their sketching, drawing, and painting in general.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Very Good
*by J***T on October 15, 2019*

Valerie Winslow teaches a master class in human anatomy as it relates to drawing the figure in this book. Along with her previous book I think it would be difficult to find more in-depth information on human anatomy and drawing anywhere else. Although it does require you READ - and there is a lot of text in both her books - to fully understand and grasp everything. Looking at the pictures - albeit beautifully illustrated - is not enough. If you're really, really serious about learning the human figure and ready to dive in deep - her books are for you!
