Artists begin by understanding the basic structure of the skeleton and muscles, then create simple gesture lines to represent the body’s action and balance. Next, they build the figure using basic shapes (like cylinders and spheres) to define the torso, limbs, and joints. Finally, they add details such as facial features, hands, clothing, and shading to give the figure depth and realism. Practicing with live models or reference photos helps improve accuracy and confidence.  aFine Arts
