try general encyclopedias. there are specific art guides for helping with this sort of thing too - perhaps that would be better? try checking in your school library or, if you have a cool teacher, ask them what personal resources they have or know of. you might have to buy something from a book or art shop. if you do, try looking in second hand places - you sometimes get good books with other people's notes in them and these can be really useful.

Leodarndo da Vinci. He studies the human anatomy and you'll find with his work there are many illustrations and such that shows the anatomy of a human being.

I bought a book from the Gallery of NSW and its called 'Anatomy for the Artist'. Its one great book! It shows drawings of muscles, bones, etc and the photgraphy in it are amazing.

Books of similar name or title and check out Leanardo da Vinci's work are helpful for finding out alot more about anatomy.

mine it. >< I hope this anatomy idea doesnt turn into a BIG recurring theme.... like the "christ" thing last yr......

*turns in other direction*

lol, I think you must be talking about the eagle spread man by Da Vinci called the "Vitruvian Man" lololol...."The David" by Michelangelo is a good sculptural example of the greek proportions which emphasises man beauty haha.
