“I am extremely happy with these illustrations, which will help my students immensely, and keep Equestricare looking professional. Wendy is very easy to work with and really knows what she’s doing. Her attention to detail is second to none and her work is beautiful. I will be contacting her again next time I need veterinary illustrations.”

Purpose
This custom veterinary anatomical illustration of the equine deep musculature features a lateral view of a horse in motion rather than the usual standing pose, since the client it was created for works with performance horses. This image includes the deep musculature of the horse, as well as the skeleton, ligaments and tendons which are associated with it. There are two other illustrations which are associated with this illustration, one of the superficial musculature of the horse, and another of the skeletal system of the horse.
This is one of a series of three images originally created for Equestricare in Australia, which is a company specializing in equine sports medicine and massage therapy for these amazing athletes.
