Anatomy Explored with Body Painting

A very interesting way of learning about our body and the anatomy that lies beneath.

Cross Hatch Drawings with a bit of Anatomy

Olivia Knapp uses a fascinating way of drawing which, is inspired by European line engravings of decorative relief and scientific specimens from the 16th to 18th centuries.  We have Shown a sample of her cross hatching technique in the Hand Detail and in the video below.  As well as the way she draws we were really impressed by the subjects that she chooses to Illustrate.  This is a quote from her site "Olivia explores the relationship between desire, reason, and circumstance".  We will leave you to explore them...

Embroidered Anatomy exposing Internal Physiology

Chilean Visual Artist Juana Gómez, brings human Internal Physiology to light with these anatomical representations.  She achieves this result by printing a photo on canvas and retouching or adding to it with drawings, over which she embroiders the particular anatomical detail.  Gómez explains it best "These embroideries are based on the repetition of a structure governing the organic and inorganic world" an example of each is the Tree and the course of rivers and its tributaries, even new technology is making use of nervous system paths and connections to design processors for computers of the future.

Stylish Anatomy Part 2

Talented Illustrator Alex Konahin has been featured here on DesignStack twice before.  His amazingly detailed drawings and and the partly fantastical and stylised aspect of them, gives an almost surreal feeling when looking at them.  Today we are featuring his second instalment in his anatomy drawings, dealing with the reproductive system.  We think he should complete illustrations of the entire human body, that would certainly interest and inspire children and adults, to learn more about anatomy. Following are links to Konahin's previous works here on DS: "Stylish Anatomy"  "Fine Line Art in Geometric shaped".

Human Anatomy with Food Art Sculptures

Food Art is very popular at the moment but, Romanian Sculptor, Illustrator and Photographer Dan Cretu brings it to a new level with these Anatomical representations of the human body, using fruits and vegetables.  We could not resit but put a few more of his pieces below them, even though strictly speaking, they are not anatomical. Enjoy...

Surreal Anatomical Art & Other

We have chosen for today's post some beautifully Surreal Art by Macedonian Artist Enkel Dika.  We mainly wanted to feature his drawings based on anatomy, but we couldn't help ourselves, but to add, a few more of his artworks.  His drawings are featured on society6, a company founded to bring together Artists from all around the world and to showcase them to the public.

Anatomy of Monsters

Brad McGinty creates these pictures of internal organs of Famous / Cult Film Monsters, which include films like Gremlins, Terminator, Aliens and Mars Attacks. Look at the Images for more information about the Monsters.  McGinty promises to send a translation of the labels, if you buy the prints, which were originally translated with Google.  He says they are quite funny (if you know what they mean maybe you can put some of them, in the comment section at the end of the article).  To get the best effect, once in the article you can enlarge the image by pressing it (not the first one).

Anatomy of Artists Photography

Brazilian Advertising Agency DDB, creates an advertising campaign for MASP Art School in Sao Paolo.  Three Famous Artist Salvador Dali, Pablo Picasso and Vincent Van Gogh are Illustrated whilst being dissected and the twist is that their internal organs are are depicted in the style of the artist.  Have a look in the article for detailed Images.  Which anatomical depiction if your favourite?  Let us know at the bottom.

Anatomy - Beauty in Art

With a background in Visual Arts, Argentinian Artist Juan Gatti creates these surreal anatomical set-ups.  At home with various artistic disciplines Gatti has produced illustrations for projects like, high fashion, music, film / movies.  He is also an established Photographer.  Of all his work, we decided to feature the "Juga Ciencias Naturales - La Fresh Gallery" a Natural Sciences series of anatomical depictions with nature and wildlife.

Quilling Anatomy

Anatomy examined using Quilling (it is a craft that uses strips of paper rolled and glued to create images, patterns).  These drawings are very cleverly done, gilded edges of old books are used to make the lines even more interesting.  Lisa Nilsson's background is an Artist and illustrator and qualified as a Certified Medical Assistant.

Human Body System as Subway Map

Illustrator, Graphic Designer and Book writer Sam Loman from the Netherlands, has a lot of outlets for her creativity.  We have chosen her love for Anatomical Illustrations, and specifically the Body Systems.  In this body of work Loman represents the various Body Systems in the stylized representation of the underground System.  The article has enlarged images of the following Systems: Arterial, Central Nervous, Digestive, Lymphatic, Musculetal, Respiratory, Urinary, and Venous.

Visual Anatomy was originally formed as a Medical Illustration Studio, started by Tina Pavatos.  When thinking for an appropriate present for its clients they came up with the Chocolates.  This created a new branch in their business, which are now sold and shipped all over the world.

Anatomy of the non Living

Anatomy of the non Living, this is not the official title but as I could not find one, I made up.  Isabelle Dalle has occupied every position from Illustrator to Artistic Director of Marie Claire Group.  These drawings are different from what we usually associate with artistic drawings but they have a really interesting quality to them.

Body System

Graphic Designer and Illustrator Rachel Ignotofsky, has put together these lovely and helpful illustrations of the Body Systems, for children.  They are a good way of initiating your child to Anatomy in a fun way.  Systems depicted include Cardiovascular, Digestive, Nervous, Respiratory and Skeletal.
