The final two drawings of my trip. The first being the skeletons of a pair of conjoined twins, possibly the piece I spent longest on as I really wanted to get it right and take down every bone and detail, and a skull from the main anatomy collection, marked lightly in pencil, presumably by one of the Vroliks, with the symbol for female and 15y, expressing the gender and age of the deceased.

Further studies from the Vrolik, this time of a section of a face cut away to reveal the details of the tear ducts and a much faster study of the inner workings of the hand and wrist’s tendons.

Conjurer’s Kitchen Chocolate Skull Workshop at the “Weekend of Anatomy: The Afterlife of Animals”, Vrolik Museum, Amsterdam.

Join us for two fabulous workshops at the Vrolik Museum of Anatomy in Amsterdam April 22nd and 23rd.

From their website:

Culinary wizard Annabel de Vetten will be with us to teach a chocolate anatomy workshop! She will demonstrate how to make a mold from an original object, how to use the mold for casting a chocolate specimen and how to temper the chocolate (a culinary trick that assures that it will stay solid). After that you will be handling your own pre-made beautiful fox skull made of solid chocolate, decorate it and paint it with edible paint. Afterwards you can take your tasty piece of art home with you to show off your skills, hang it on the wall or – if you really can’t resist – eat it. Check out her magic at http://www.conjurerskitchen.com/ Duration: approximately 3 hours. Price: €60,- all materials included 

It promises to be a wonderful weekend, please do check out all the other events here:
