I can happily say that I handed in my drawings to a Professor in the czech part of the anatomy department who obviously are interested. I hope he will like the originals and I'm curious to hear what he thinks and what he wants to do with them.
During Wednesday's anatomy practical we spent a lot of time in the dissection room studying the authentic heart. Holding it in your palm is a strange but exciting feeling.
As I said - it's all about the heart...
your draws are very very fabulous but i can not help but notice that they are very unlike my heart!!!! i know you draw them from the books for medicine and it is not original. where is your heart?!
ReplyDeleteI understand what you mean and fully agree.
ReplyDeleteBut drawing from ones head is not easy, especially when we talk about internal organs (its not as easy as putting an apple and a banana in a bowl like you do in grammar school art class :P)
If I get to be in dissections just drawing organs put on a table with the right light I have no doubt I could get my own perspective of it. Until then, or until I find a nice photo of organs, Im afraid that Netter will have to give me inspiration.
Hi Johannes! Its great following your blog but I can't help but agreeing with what anonymous said. I am a 4th year student at charles and as you probably know, this is the year when we start surgery etc... so ofcourse revision of first year anatomy is compulsory, and well even though your drawings are good, they are all copies of drawings from netters or thiemes. I understand what you say about drawing from your head and that it may be difficult but at the same time, those who have published books before you, depicting organs and such, had to do it with a sense of creativity which i think you are lacking. I honestly think that in some way, your drawings are a cheat, its as if someone holding tracing paper over the mona lisa, and calling it their own work. I think you would do much better and also it would be more beneficial to you as a med student to actually try to recreate the physcial aspects of what you study and then drawn it instead of copying other people's work.
