I’ve referenced Jason Freeny’s work over the years. How could I resist art so clearly obsessed with anatomy AND candy?

This was the image that first introduced me to his unique brand of genius:

And…

Are these the textbook images pulled from some fictional world in which gummi bears teach biology? Don’t you wish YOUR textbooks looked like this?

I was drawn back to Freeny’s site after Random Good Stuff posted his new Anatomical Skateboard Deck.

Sadly, if I tried to skateboard I’m sure my guts would be sprawled on the sidewalk in a much less appealing configuration.

Artists often simply go for the gore with medical imagery, but Freeny uses smooth surfaces, bright colors and a good sense of lighting. I enjoy the rather ominous sense of sterility…as if medicine is a giant mechanized entity.

Well, it is.

If I could give one suggestion, it would be to take “Visible Vinyl” (below) from a print to an actual model. I’d want one. Pretty badly.
