Project Description
The illustration accompanied an article about current research into circulating biomarkers in the blood to enable earlier detection and monitoring of Alzheimer’s disease. I chose a dark and stormy look watercolor effect for the background to help highlight the biological markers in the call outs and allow for a transparent effect in the main blood vessel as well as the myelinated axons.
