Skeletons

Over the last two weeks I've explored some of London's more morbid museums in search of bones. I'd recommend the Hunterian Museum for anybody interested in human anatomy, the Horniman Museum for animal anatomy and the Wellcome Collection's permanent exhibition for non-anatomical medical curiousities. I'm planning on visiting the Natural History Museum in the new year.

Yesterday I took a break from drawing in favour of a papercraft project from Skull-A-Day.



The lower jaw can be opened and closed, but unfortunately it doesn't quite move smoothly enough.

I'm actually a bit bored of human skulls; they're everywhere at the moment. I'd like to see more spines and rib cages!
