Anatomical Illustrations

This section showcases detailed studies of human anatomy using both traditional and digital techniques. Through the femur illustration, hand dissection rendering, digital scapula painting, and wax head écorché, these works demonstrate a strong foundation in anatomical structure, form, and spatial understanding. The inclusion of both two-dimensional and sculptural work highlights a diverse skill set in accurately representing the human body for medical and educational purposes.

​The objective of this project was to produce a true-to-scale, highly realistic graphite drawing of a human femur. Using calipers, I precisely translated bone measurements onto paper to ensure anatomical accuracy. I began with graphite powder and a range of brushes to establish smooth, tonal shading on Bristol paper, then layered in fine details using various graphite pencils to achieve depth and realism.

Digital Scapula Painting

The objective of this project was to create a labeled anatomical illustration of a dissected hand, showcasing the internal structures of hand anatomy. I chose to focus on a hand affected by rheumatoid arthritis, emphasizing the pathological changes that occur in contrast to normal anatomical features. This illustration was created using Adobe Photoshop and was rendered digitally to clearly communicate both structural detail and disease-specific alterations.

Hand Dissection Line Illustration

The objective of this assignment was to sculpt a life-size wax écorché head, revealing the anatomical structures of the head and neck. My model was designed to not only depict the general anatomy but also demonstrate trauma-specific features, including a fractured nasal bone and a bruised orbital region. This added an educational layer focused on injury representation. The sculpture was built using modeling wax over a provided plastic skull base.
