A Testamanent to Hard Work

Bennett Barch Neck Anatomy tattoo color by Scott Fricke

Bennett Barch Neck Anatomy tattoo color by Scott Fricke

Gorgeous neck anatomy tattoo taken from Atlas of Anatomy by Jean Baptiste Marc Bourgery.  Bennett Barch got this tattoo after spending years in medical school and residency, “I decided to get the tattoo as a symbol of the effort I put into my career.”  I think I like the line version as much as the color.  Well done!

The tattoo was done by Chicago-based tattoo artist, Scott Fricke.

Mortadella

Christian Gonzenbach Mortadella

Mortadella, 2006 85 x 67 x 4 cm ultrachrome print laminated on acrylic

If only all processed meats came in this shape, perhaps we’d be less inclined to eat them.

Swiss contemporary artist, Christian Gonzenbach formed this piece of morbid cold cut.  It was displayed along side the infamous For the Love of God diamond encrusted skull of Damien Hirst among other famous pieces at the Vanities from Caravaggio to Damien Hirst Musée Maillol exhibition in Paris back in 2010.

Gonzenbach says of his work, “My research consists in exploring this exiguous border between the normal and the weird, where the world looses its meaning and topples over into absurdity, craziness or poetry.”

Deep in the Forest You’re Not Alone

Karl Kwasny Deep In The Forest


Deep in the forest, where heavy feet sink,
you mightn’t be quite as alone as you think.

Manhattan-based illustrator Karl Kwasny (meaning “sour” in Polish), has a wonderfully dark children’s book-type style of illustration.  I love how the skull illusion is so subtle and daunting.

STUNTKID’s Deadlips

Mesmerizing time lapse video of the digital art technique of Jason Levesque.  Jason, aka Stuntkid, is a Norfolk, VA based illustrator and photographer who’s anatomically themed work has appeared before here on Street Anatomy.

I’ve been noticing more artists doing time lapse videos of their process and people, including me, can’t get enough of them.  There’s something special about seeing how a piece goes from a simple sketch to a fully rendered work of art. It’s especially interesting to see how an artist makes decisions throughout the growth of the piece.  They’ll try something, change it, change it back, try a different color, change it back, tweak, tweak, tweak, etc.  And above all, I find watching these videos so inspiring for getting back to doing your own art.

If anyone has time lapse videos of their anatomical art, please send us links through the form on the Contact page! We want to see them!
