How to draw Sagittal section of Human brain

Brain is the site of information processing and control. It is protected in the cranial cavity and covered by three connective tissue membranes called Cranial meninges.The brain can be divided into three major parts called i. Fore brain ii. Mid brain iii. Hind brain. Fore brain consists of Olfactory bulb, Cerebrum and Diencephalon. Mid brain is locateb between the thalamus of the fore brain and the Pons Varoli of the hind brain. Hind brain comprises Cerebellum, Pons varoli and Medulla oblongata.  Cerebellum is the second largest part of the brain. It consists of two Cerebella hemispheres  It has  branching tree -like core of white mater called Arbor vitae (the tree of life) surrounded by a sheath of grey matter.


1.Draw  an inverted bean shape.

2.Draw Corpus callosum and other regions of the brain as shown in the bean shape.
 3.Then make brain stem and Cerebellum as shown.
 4.Make the grooves on cerebrum as shown.

 The brain consists of four ventricles. The first and second ventricles (Paracoels) are present in the right and left cerebral hemispheres respectively. The third  ventricle (Diocoel) occurs in the diencephalon. The two Paracoels are connected to the median diocoel individually by the two foramina of Monro. The fourth ventricle (Myelocoel) is present in the medulla . The myelocoelk and the diocoel are connected by a narrow canal caller iter or Aqeuduct of Sylvius/Cerebral aqueduct..The ventricles of the brain, and the subarachnoid space are filled with Cerebro- spinal fluid. CSF is an alkaline, colourless fluid which is filtered from the choroid plexuses into the ventricles of the brain.

As an artist suddenly getting interested in medical diagrams as a theme, I stumbled on your work. Right up my alley. I am so pleased that you have done this work. The simplifications at the start clarify the basic form well.
