Before morning rounds, between cases, post-call, waiting in line for coffee… There is always time for a quick sketch. During clerkship, I carried around a sketchbook, capturing what I saw and what I learned. Here are a few photographs from my Orthopedic Rotation Sketchbook. One of my goals of the rotation was to review anatomy by going through old lecture notes and textbooks. Gray’s Anatomy and Netter’s – two of my favorite textbooks filled with amazing drawings!
Notes from an amazing textbook. I will find the title & author
Reviewing anatomy lecture notes and looking at a plastic skeleton with origin and insertions of muscles painted on it
I think this is wonderful to keep adults and children informed about health and surgery KUDOS TO MICHIKO MARUYAMA and thank you for sharing this information to the public, now when i have surgery i will look at one of your books 88 years young.
US med student here — this is amazing! I’ve been trying to do this, but it takes me a really long time (never took drawing classes, trying to figure it out)
Do you plan out your diagrams? Do you start with a big outline and then do stuff like shading and details
Anyways, just wanted to share that your website truly inspired me!
