I’ve also been working with my Medical Terminolgy professor, Dr. Todd Curtis, on a textbook he has written – he has asked me to draw 100 illustrations for his textbook by the end of the summer (outside office work as an STA).

Medical illustration pertains to drawing of the human anatomy and physiology in myriad of ways: for doctors, for lawyers, for scientific textbooks, for biomedical companies, etc. I’m not quite sure how set I am on becoming a medical illustrator, but I hope that this is a great stepping stone for my dreams I want to achieve!! These are some of the illustrations I’ve worked on so far:
