LEARNING PATH

Anatomy

This 10-part workshop series explores the essential structures of the human body through in-depth demonstrations by accomplished figurative artists and instructors. Each two-hour session focuses on a different region, from the head and torso to the arms, legs, hands, and feet. The lessons break down complex anatomy into clear, artist-friendly concepts. Artists will learn how professionals analyze proportions, simplify forms, and apply anatomical knowledge directly to drawings and paintings. With a balance of structural understanding and artistic interpretation, the Anatomy Path equips artists with the skills to depict the human figure with accuracy, confidence, and expressive power.

Frequently Asked Questions
Everything you need to know about the Learning Path.
Learning Paths have been organized to help both aspiring and professional artists, who are looking for training based on the fundamental categories of creative work in the visual effects, animation and games industries. Each Learning Path has been curated to contain a collection of workshops that guide artists through a series of topics relevant to that path, but they are not necessarily sequential. When appropriate, however, we have organized the workshops in a path to be in a logical order. All workshops are tagged with their level (beginner, intermediate, advanced) so that you can browse the path and choose a title that matches both the subject matter and level that you are looking for.
All Gnomon Workshop instructors are professional artists from the entertainment industry, who have worked with us to structure their time, experience and knowledge into practical and inspiring training. We believe that it is important to learn from masters of the craft, who have honed those skills via years of experience working in production, collaboratively with their peers. Through time and experience, artists develop not just their creative and technical ability, but also their communication skills. These become critical aspects to being an effective lead artist, supervisor or, in our case, instructor.
Whether you choose an Annual or a Monthly Subscription, your plan will give you unlimited access to all 26 Learning Paths, allowing you to learn at your own pace. Your subscription also gives you access to the entire catalog of 350+ workshops, with new comprehensive workshops added every month.
While many workshops include Project Files, these are at the instructors’ discretion. You will find details of any project files provided on each workshop page, along with the software/tools required to tackle the workshop. If you have any questions, you can contact us via our Live Chat or email the team at support@thegnomonworkshop.com.
