ON THE FENCE?
You might be wondering…
-
Project timelines vary based on complexity, but most standard illustrations take 3–6 weeks. If you have a strict publication deadline, please let me know in your initial inquiry!
-
Absolutely. I regularly work with proprietary surgical techniques and unpublished research. NDAs are standard practice.
-
I provide all the "print ready" files you’ll need. I can also recommend high-end printers who specialize in the kind of premium finishes my clients love.
-
This is my specialty! I can illustrate your surgical procedure and design the patient brochure it lives in. It ensures total visual harmony.
-
If you value research, precision, and a warm collaborative process, we’re going to get along great! :)
-
I know deadlines can move fast. While I prefer to schedule projects in advance, I do occasionally take on rush projects for an additional fee. Reach out and I’ll let you know my current availability.
-
Absolutely! While I’m based in Chicago, science is a global language. I work with researchers and clinicians all over the world, using digital collaboration tools to keep our communication seamless, regardless of the time zone.
-
You don’t need to be an artist, that’s my job! I am an expert at translating stick figure sketches, napkin scribbles, and rough ideas into polished, gallery-standard art. I can see the vision behind your sketch and will bring it to life for you.
