Cancer cells, HIV and Ebola by Alexey Kashpersky

It's difficult not to get drawn in by Alexey Kashpersky's stunning digital illustrations of what look like otherworldly creatures. The Ukrainian artist creates mesmerizing pictures of cancer cells, neurons, blood clotting, and a myriad of viruses and bacteria to let viewers explore the world of medicine and microbiology. To accomplish these stark 3D images, he uses various computer graphics software applications such as Nuke, ZBrush, 3ds Max, V-Ray, Photoshop and After Effects.

Alexey, who I discovered through The Pipetteer, has a Master of Visual and Decorative and Applied Arts degree. He is the recipient of several awards in the field of 3D graphics, and his work has been published in numerous books and magazines. The Poltava native now lives in New Jersey where he works as a 3D artist at Radius Digital Science. He is a member of the Association of Medical Illustrators.

I was wondering how many pen strokes does it take to complete just one of these drawings, so I did some research and found out that her small 5 in. by 7 in. illustrations typically take a few hours, while an 11 in. by 14 in. picture can take anywhere from 10-25 hours. "My hand does hurt a bit after marathon sessions, but never anything too crazy," she told Lisa Congdon. "I try to rest my eyes/hands/brain every once in awhile by looking away from the drawing, dropping the pen, and taking a breather." Katy received a BA in Mathematics, Art, and Spanish from Greenville College in Il...
