September is Aneurysm Awareness Month, so I’ll be sharing various medical illustrations depicting them and their treatment each week. I created these images for the Microsurgical Basics and Bypass Techniques book, written by Evgenii Belykn, MD, PhD @ebelykh. It shows tandem clipping with fenestrated clip, placed to save an arterial branch in the fenestration window, and the wrapping of an artery bearing a small blister-type aneurysm #aneurysmclip #bypass #aneurysm #clipping #microsurgery #endoscope #bypasssurgery #vascular #pathology #medicalillustration #cintiq #wacomtablet #scienceart #medical #pathologyassistant #ortech #neuronurse #paschool #physcicianassistant #neuro #illustrators #artistsoninstagram #neurosurgery #photoshoppainting #digitalartists #pathological #surgical #techniques (at Phoenix, Arizona) https://www.instagram.com/p/CTUstbEl9MI/?utm_medium=tumblr
This year I was honored to have my work selected as cover art for four JNS & JNS: Spine issues. I can’t wait to see what Neuroscience Publications can accomplish next year #2021 #journalcovers #medicalillustration #neurosurgery #neuroscience #barrow (at Barrow Neurological Institute) https://www.instagram.com/p/CYJzDKUFARI/?utm_medium=tumblr
Another original gouache painting from the legendary Russel Drake, 1933. I love how you can see the individual strokes of white painted highlights on the instruments. Such delicate and precise rending #traditionalpainting #gouache #oldartwork #historicart #arthistory #medicinehistory #pen #ink #traditionaldrawing #medicalillustration #inspiration #lineart #artistsoninstagram #linework #skull #inspire #neuro #artistsupport (at Phoenix, Arizona) https://www.instagram.com/p/CXtTOEClTHu/?utm_medium=tumblr
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 #neurosurgical #publications #coverart #pathology #brain #spine #medicalart #peerreview #journal #cover #artworks #medicalillustration #2021best #artistsoninsta #conceptartwork #publish #medart (at Phoenix, Arizona) https://www.instagram.com/p/CXoeOzMpPut/?utm_medium=tumblr
