ARTERIES AND VEINS

​

A few sketches were created and this final image resulted from a combination of those. A standard side view was chosen to allow visualization of relevant structures. 

​

The original image was drawn with pencil and then cleaned up and transformed into a linear drawing in Adobe Illustrator and Adobe Photoshop.

​

In the final version, labels were added.

​

​

After a few trials, I decided to label the image with numbers for two reasons:

  • With no arrows, lines or letters I achieved a cleaner final look

  • Having the structures and the labels presented separately allows for testing our knowledge of the structures with the image
