The Bargue drawing course provides students with classical instruction on drawing in a traditional realist style. This plate was reproduced in graphite, using only the tip of the pencil to achieve a full range of clean tones, all without brushes or blending stomps. To obtain fine details and transitions, the pencils are sharpened to a needle-like point, with over an inch of exposed lead. This work requires fine manual dexterity and sensitivity, and attention to proportion and large forms as well as detail.

I thrive at the interface between science, engineering, medicine, and art. As a biomedical communicator, I am passionate about using cutting edge discoveries to create dynamic visual stories. I can’t imagine a more fitting way to support innovation, collaboration, education, and informed decision making. By translating knowledge into narratives, my vision is to captivate people, spark their curiosity, and motivate them to share what they learned.
