Case Study - Book Illustrations for
The Natural Health Bible for Women
The Natural Health Bible for Women is the complete guide for women of all ages, to help women make informed choices, about their body. With detailed explanations and illustrations of how different aspects of the human female body works.
Joanna Culley was the sole medical illustrator for the book 'The Natural Health Bible for Women' which was published in Spring 2010 by Duncan Baird Publishers, London.
The brief was for detailed and precise medical illustrations in watercolour, which is a medium that allows accuracy yet is still visually appealing and sensitive artwork, that helps to illustrate the text. Joanna painted over a dozen watercolour illustrations by hand on a variety of anatomical areas. The watercolour images were scanned at high resolution so that they could be included digitally in the layout of the book.
The project took a number of weeks to complete from the initial discussions, through the creation of pencial sketches, and finally the creation of the unique watercolour paintings that were used in the book.

Client comments...
"I'm really pleased with how the book finally looks and that is in part huge thanks to Jo for such fantastic and skilled art. The level of detail that Jo achieves is incredible and her medical knowledge clearly abounds. She is always such a pleasure to work with - nothing is too big or small a job. It was all approached with the same cheery manner! Jo always delivered on deadlines too, which is a huge relief to us designers! Many thanks - it has indeed been a pleasure. I would have no hesitation to recommend Jo!"
