This comprehensive medical illustration depicts the progression of breast cancer from early cellular changes through advanced stages. The visualization carefully details the transformation of healthy breast tissue, showing how cancer cells develop, multiply, and potentially spread. By combining anatomical accuracy with clear visual storytelling, this artwork serves as an essential educational tool for both healthcare professionals and patients, helping to explain the complex processes involved in cancer development and the importance of early detection.
Creating a compelling medical illustration is a journey that goes far beyond the final line work. Each piece begins with ideation—brainstorming concepts and researching the subject matter. This is followed by a series of exploratory sketches and drafts, where ideas are visualized, refined, and iterated upon. Only after this thoughtful process does the final artwork emerge, ensuring both scientific accuracy and visual clarity. Below, you’ll find a gallery showcasing not just the finished illustration, but also the sketches and drafts that shaped its development.
What goes into a seemingly simple medical illustration? We started with a series of sketches to explore the different signs and symptoms of breast cancer. We then selected the most relevant signs and symptoms to include in the final artwork.
