Blood Vessel-Obsessed Visuals

Lisa Perrin Incorporates Veins and Arteries into Her Illustrations

— February 6, 2012 — Art & Design
Lisa Perrin may change up the concepts and subjects of her illustrations, but one consistent visual motif found in most of her renderings is blood vessels. Depending on the viewer, you may find these depictions elegant and light-hearted or rather morose and creepy due to the inclusion of arteries and veins. Personally, I think it’s rather inventive to paint blood vessels as though they’re stems of flowers, though admittedly, it is rather eerie to see a palpitating heart outside a subject’s body rather than inside their chest cavity.

Lisa Perrin currently resides near Maryland, New York, as she continues to pursue her MFA in Illustration. Her strength lies in creating visuals that are highly feminine, but with a macabre touch. This makes for provocative imagery that puts viewers at unease, but in a pleasurable way.
Trend Themes
1. Blood Vessel-inspired Art - Artists can explore the incorporation of blood vessels in their illustrations, creating visually striking and thought-provoking pieces.
2. Macabre and Feminine Aesthetics - There is an opportunity for designers and fashion brands to embrace a combination of macabre and feminine elements to create unique and captivating products.
