It’s a bittersweet day as we say farewell to a medical illustrator innovator, the manager of Neuroscience Publications, Mark Schornak. He will be joining the team at @unc_neurosurgery Chapel Hill. Mark has worked at here at @barrowneuro for the last 30 years, creating countless traditional and digital neurosurgical drawings and paintings, and inspiring the next generation of medical illustrators.
Mark hired me as a medical illustrator at Barrow’s Neuroscience Publications department back in 2016. Over the years, Mark has been a great friend and mentor to me, always taking the time to help me understand complex neurosurgical concepts and being patient with me as I drew things incorrectly over and over again. Mark’s impressive knowledge of neuroanatomy combined with his unique artistic approach to illustration has made him a medical illustrator in a league of his own. As an illustrator, I don’t think I’m capable of filling Mark’s shoes, but it’s an honor to walk in his footsteps. Best of Luck, Mark! #medicalillustrator #mentor #teacher #medicalart #neurosurg #publications #department #peerreview #journals #bookcover #artworks #brains #scienceart #neurosciences #artscience #inspiration #farewellparty

It’s been both exciting and daunting to take on a project of this magnitude. Collaborating with fellow medical illustrator @larsonkl to bring to life Dr. @michael_t_lawton ’s vision for Seven Cavernomas has been one of the most rewarding experiences of my career, and I look forward to continuing our work into the new year. Our article “A taxonomy for brainstem cavernous malformations: subtypes of midbrain lesions” is available to read online (link in my bio) at thejns.org, in the Publish Before Print section. Keep an eye out for more Seven Cavernomas articles as they are released throughout 2022 in @thejnspg

Framed Flying Heart
Here is one of my signature steampunk pieces - the mechanical flying heart. Although I make many of these, each one is unique with different features, layout and parts. I love working in miniature - the more complex - the better.
This piece is extremely intricate - 100+ parts some less than 1mm. The green glow under the grill/screen is from glow in the dark powder mixed with resin - I mix my own so it’s a strong glow. I recommend using a UV torch to “charge” it if wearing it at an event.
Nothing is glued on - it’s all deep pinned, soldered, using cold connection methods or screwed. It is robust enough the be worn without fear of anything falling off. I don’t cast or fabricate preferring to use existing items from a variety of sources. Some parts are antique, vintage, NOS or new.
Dimensions:
The pendant is 3 inches wide (75mm) and 1 ½ inches long (36mm) and 1 inch (24mm) deep. The chain is gold tone brass faceted cut cable link, 22 inches long with a gold tone lobster claw clasp.
The frame:
I decided to include a glass frame and dock when clients expressed their desire to be able to have the piece visible when not being worn. So I bought a commercial shadow box, painted it “distressed” gold, attached black felt and brass brackets. The heart can be accessed easily out of the back and attached to the chain with two push clasps and rings. The two clasp points keep the heart from flipping around when being worn.
It takes the piece to another level, especially if given as a gift. As a desk ornament or part of your home decor, my little biomechanical winged heart is sure to be commented on and desired.
The frame is square - 5 X 5 inches (125mm) and 1.6 inches (40mm) deep. The back panel is secured with four rotating clips and also has a “D” ring for wall hanging. The heart just rests on the two brass prongs.
Build time: 40 hours.
Available in my Etsy shop $455
