Being able to draw the human form is an important skill for every artist. In so doing, the ability to draw muscles accurately must not be overlooked.

Whether making a realistic sketch or creating a comic book hero, bulging muscles often "make the man." Much emphasis is often placed on the muscles of the arm, especially the biceps. The size of the biceps muscles is often used as an indicator of strength.

The term "biceps" comes from Latin terms meaning "two" and "head." Biceps, therefore, are muscles with two heads, or two distinct sections. The biceps brachii is the muscle typically referred to as biceps. It is a prominent muscle of the upper arm.
