Cardio Climber


A long delayed drawing for my doctor, a cardiologist. I'd actually envisioned him climbing a heart as massive as Everest and planting a caduceus triumphantly at its peak, but such a scale would have made it impossible convey any likeness of him so I reduced the heart to the size of a hill.
Incidentally one might deem it foolish for a patient with pancreatitus to choose a cardiologist as his doctor, but apart from the fact that he's one of the sharpest doctors I've ever met, there's a rather depressing chart on the wall of his office showing the likelihood of someone developing heart disease as they get older and the way I see it, he'll be able to practice his specialty on me soon enough when my ticker starts to go.
