An illustration of a boy picking apples from a book illustrated by Marjorie Leggitt

PORTFOLIO PUBLICATIONS

As a natural science illustrator, I provide the expertise needed to comprehend, communicate and visualize the needs of the scientific community. From conceptual design to final digital and traditional graphics, I create art for children’s natural history books, textbooks, scientific journals, trade books, botanical keys and field guides.

Below is a selection from over 80 books and scientific papers, and publishers with whom I’ve worked. Are you looking for a simple black & white spot drawing or a fully illustrated book? I can help.
