Look deep into nature, and then you will understand everything better. – Einstein
How Drawings Tell Complex Stories
I assist healthcare and nature-focused publishers in creating compelling medical and life science illustrations without worrying about quality, reliability, and timely delivery so they can empower and enhance their revenue streams. 😊🎨💪
I have worked with Karin Spijker for many years on various visual projects. The greatest common denominator in these projects is a qualitative, professional image realized within the deadline. Karin is entirely at home in both fields, whether an illustration or high-end image editing on photo material.
