Of course this is a redundant topic, but I am constantly amazed at how many designers I see submitting quality artwork, yet are constantly getting the shaft. If you are feeling overlooked, or know of a deserving participant, post it here, and let's get some stuff going!

Here's a few peeps I am personally vying for:

Piano Tuna - Threadless T-shirts, Nude No More

The Most Dangerous Month of the Year - Threadless T-shirts, Nude No More

renaissance angel - Threadless T-shirts, Nude No More

There's no way I would've come up with this idea without the teaching analogies of Adam Hayes and Leif Saul, lab coordinators for the Human Anatomy course at the University of Colorado. Thanks guys...you are rock stars, and of course getting free loot from me! I'd also like to thank my friends, family, and of course all of you fabulous Threadless community members for voting and providing invaluable feedback...you are my favorite people in the art world! I'll stop rambling, and provide you a link with more info about the making of Bird Brain. Cheers! - Erin

A few people have asked me to further explain how the hummingbird analogy actually works, so I thought I'd try to give a little more visual detail.

Here is a pretty simple line drawing of the brain in mid-sagittal section (i.e., a cut that follows the mid-line of the body.) The structures highlighted in yellow are the midbrain, pons, medulla oblongata, and the cerebellum, and collectively, are what anatomists describe to their students as looking like the body and wing of a hummingbird.



To illustrate this concept, I started with a basic pen and ink drawing of a torso in mid-sagittal section, scanned it in to Illustrator, and built my hummingbird and spinal cord as vector graphics. Eventually, I hope to illustrate more of these analogies, since I think they are not only informative, but visually intriguing.



End result...



Cheers,

Erin
