Debbie and I were prepared to be drawing bits of each other - maybe a hand, maybe even our own off-hand, our feet as we looked down, our neighbour's profile as we drew but, no, Jan had other ideas. When she said anatomy she meant Gray's. Bits of kidney, heart, esophagus, cross-sections of spines, cuts through the thoracic cavity. Interior anatomy, dissection style. Fortunately we got to use anatomical studies as the basis of our drawings rather than the messier alternative. Unfortunately for me, we had to draw BIG. This time we had to fill a full drawing sheet of Stonehenge (22x30) and then use inks to shade and colour. I used an Amber and Blue ink on a kidney and this is the result - well bits of the result...

Whoa!That is so cool!!! It's been quite a while since I did Biology assignments and drawings in High School. Those drawings were pretty boring compared to these. Lovely definition and simplicity. Nice work!
These drawings must have been so interesting to do. And yes, even if it was Hallowe'en, the alternative would have been pretty icky! I'm glad you didn't turn into Dr. Frankenstein....
