Muscles, ligaments, tendons and nerves. 🤙 This was the most satisfactory part of this 48 hour sketch. The hand starts to look less spooky and more like a real anatomic study. Materials: Abs & Flexy plastics from @3doodler Inspo: @taschen Atlas of Human Anatomy and Surgery - Jean Marc Bourgery #anatomyandphysiology #anatomydrawing #anatomyart #3dpenart #3dprints #emergingart #handshakes #skeletonart #darkart #steameducation #kineticsculpture
I could do this all day, every day. 💀🤙 @3doodler sketch based on @taschen Atlas of Human Anatomy and Surgery. #skeletonart #anatomicalart #articulated #kineticsculpture #steameducation
Anatomically correct — this hand moves at every possible articulation.🤙I sketched it from scratch with a @3doodler pen and a couple of days time! A full time-lapse can be found on my YT. 📺 #darkart #makearteveryday #experimentalart #3dprintedmodels #steameducation #learnanatomy #quicksketches #practicedrawing #productionart
#steameducation works 👊 Last weekend, I had the chance to bring together my passion and background in art, with my skills in technology. Through a 48-hour Makers Marathon, students in the tech sector had a chance to use the @cityfab1 facilities to digitally design and build a prototype of an idea. It was such a thrill coaching these young people through their first experience with design. The art world is an incredible entryway into so many aspects of science and technology, which often gets overlooked in the standard educational system. When we teach through art, we can reach students who learn through doing. We need these creative thinkers to be part of the science and technology world, because they bring the innovative and diverse backgrounds that push the sector into crucial new directions. So for all those working in science and technology I would say this: reach out to artists, to makers, and to builders. I guarantee they have something unique to share about the learning experience. Bonus dog picture at the end of the gallery. 🐕 #iteachsteam #stemeducation #appliedarts #techart #artistamexicano #mexicanos

This Halloween, I took my love of anatomy up a notch with a full @3doodler sketched skeleton. 💀 This little guy features fully articulated joints, a massive head and a spooky vibe. Did I mention it also glows in the dark? 💀💀💀💀💀😱 #spookyscaryskeletons #teratology #3dpen #3dprinted #mexicanartist #halloweenartist #hydrocephalus #bighead #diademuertos2019
Got my fav sculpture back for the weekend. Memento Mori was the first sculpture I ever sold, and I'm really glad I got it back, albeit just for a brief couple of days. Let's get this patina done! 🔵 #bronzepatina #skullface #bronzesculptures #artistamexicano #mementomori #lostwaxcasting #bronzecasting #humaningeometry
Finally got the chance to test this #3dprinted wearable sculpture — made entirely using the @3doodler and FLEXY plastic filament. After a couple of adjustments, the dress hit the streets of central Brussels, worn by @jennygarrity_ #artaporter #wearableartgala #3dprintedart #3dprints #3dpen #3dpenart #euroart #overcastday #grandplacebrussels #3ddrawing #3dpencil #lapiz3d
