Anatomical drawing on a cast


Heather Tomkins drew this lovely anatomical illustration on the casted arm of her friend, the illustrator Taylor White: "I was thusly wrangled into making this old school plaster cast (they do things funky in Norway apparently) into an awesome work of art."

CAST, AWAY!!!! (via Street Anatomy)

That makes me want to break my arm just so I can have it.

@Weatherman: one doesn't need a broken bone in order to apply plaster of paris to one's arm

Sometimes people get cast sleeves. Someone should try printing anatomy on them to sell.

does it include the break point?

Hah! Some Illustrator Taylor White must be if the art had to be outsourced. Broken drawing hand, you say? Oh.

Saw one of those in SF on Saturday. No break either.

the illustrator who drew it is an SF based friend of mine, she did the cast in stages, you may have seen it out and about before the break point was drawn on. the final version can be seen on her blog though, and the person who broke her drawing arm is an Oslo based illustrator, hence the outsourcing of artwork. They went to school together, a link to her site can also be seen on the blog.

Better than getting everyone to sign your cast. Much better.
