Drawing With Doctors

http://media.soundmedicine.org/segments/063013_8.mp3

"Sound Medicine" reporter Sandy Robb recently attended an art class with several medical residents at the Indianapolis Art Center. The classes are the brainchild of Dr. Christopher Jones of My Plastic Surgery Group. According to Rob Paul, M.D., an Indiana University plastic surgery resident, taking art classes has helped him understand negative space in addressing the fine details in facial structures. Another medical resident, Christine Ueno, M.D., has noticed she needs to work more on proportions and translating two-dimensional to three-dimensional objects.
