Description
Lucky enough to have attended the cadaver lab at the college of medicine and blessed to have engaging professors like Prof. Samsam and Prof. Ahangari. I found a passion for medical illustrating. I will forever thank them for instilling in me a desire to accurately depict the human form.
My illustrations got me into the lab of the College of Medicine, where through 2 years I spent over 30 hours analyzing the cadavers as the first-year students learned and grew as future medical doctors. I aim to push the boundary between art and science, juxtaposing an accurate depiction of the brain with a beautiful city scape. I aim to make both fine art and quality, beautiful illustrations for medical students to learn from.
