BRAIN ILLUSTRATION Project Type Personal Project Media Digital Drawing Software Procreate, Adobe Illustrator Audience Anatomy Students I created this illustration to continue honing my 2D illustration skills. I wanted a base illustration of my digital painting skills that could be used as the foundation for various educational illustrations. Having little experience drawing the brain, I wanted that to be my first iteration. I will soon be adding illustrations of eye anatomy and ear anatomy. BASE ILLUSTRATIONS

CT RECONSTRUCTION - LYMPH NODES Project Type Assignment for University of Dundee's MSc Medical Art Program Media 2D Digital Illustration Software ZBrush, KeyShot, Adobe Photoshop, Adobe Illustrator Audience Anatomy Students, Patient Education CT Data provided by OsiriX and Pixmeo The CT data was imported into ZBrush as 3D objects and edited to fix any holes and disfigurement of the skeleton and skin layers. Each layer was then painted to look realistic, and then exported to KeyShot where still images were rendered for each angle. The stills were then imported into Photoshop to add the transparent effect and paint in the lymph nodes. Finally, the infographic was created using Illustrator.

HAND DISSECTION LINE DRAWING Project Type Assignment for University of Dundee's MSc Medical Art Program Media Digital Drawing Software Adobe Photoshop Audience Anatomy Students This assignment was to create a black and white line drawing in Adobe Photoshop of a hand dissection. I chose to illustrate the dorsal view of the hand, with an emphasis on the dorsal interossei muscles. I started with a sketch built from multiple prosections and models and then began building the drawing layer by layer for each anatomical structure. After the initial drawing in Photoshop, I cross referenced the anatomy with resources in our anatomy museum and then executed these changes in the final drawing. FINAL ILLUSTRATIONS PROJECT PLANNING

AXILLARY VARIATIONS Project Type Self-Directed Project for University of Dundee’s MSc Medical Art Program Media Digital Drawings Software Adobe Photoshop, Procreate Audience 4th Year Medical Students For this self-directed project, I worked with an anatomy professor at my University who was wanting illustrations of anatomical variations. They stated that variations in the axillary were something that they needed better illustrations of, specifically what it would look like during an axillary clearance. The goal was to be able to show the 4th year students what they may come across if they were ever needing to work within the axilla. I created the typical axilla and its anatomy, and then also two of the more common variations: axillary arch and pectoralis quartus. I then overlayed the surgical illustration to show what an axillary clearance view might look like. Although they only needed the images for lectures, I also put the images within a mockup textbook page to be able to present the illustrations together within context.

IUD INSERTION INFOGRAPHIC Project Type Self-Directed Project for University of Dundee’s MSc Medical Art Program Media Vector Illustrations Software Adobe Illustrator Audience Patients This was a completely self-directed project, with the aim of patient education. Over the years I have become aware of how little easily accessible information on the entire IUD insertion process there is and therefore wanted to fill this gap with an interactive illustration of this. Because the tenaculum can be the most painful part of the procedure, I felt that this needed to be included in patient education so that those who choose to get an IUD know exactly what it happening and what to expect. I also chose to include pain management options at the end so that patients know they have options if they are concerned about the pain of the procedure. I started with planning out each slide, then creating all of the illustrations in Adobe Illustrator. Next, I used a program called Genially that allowed me to make the slides interactive and animated. INFOGRAPHIC SLIDES INFOGRAPHIC WITHIN MOCK WEBSITE STORYBOARDING ILLUSTRATION WORK IN PROGRESS

TENACULUM TOOL Project Type Assignment for University of Dundee’s MSc Medical Art Program Media Vector Illustrations Software Adobe Illustrator Audience General Public, Patients The brief for this assignment was to create a surgical tool using Adobe Illustrator. I chose the tenaculum tool, because although it is a pretty simple tool, I find it rarely illustrated when IUD insertion and other gynecological procedures are shown. I also illustrated the other tools used during an IUD insertion and created a mockup website to provide context for the tool. FINAL GRAPHIC VECTOR ILLUSTRATIONS PROGRESS OF THE ILLUSTRATION
