For centuries, drawing has been at the core of scientific research and documentation. From botanical studies to anatomical drawing to medical illustrations, the art of drawing is a powerful tool to help us understand and interpret the complex structures of the natural world. In this course, students will gain the technical skills to successfully render compelling biological illustrations ranging from microscopic organisms to plants to the human body. Students will analyze biological subjects and draw from life as a means of strengthening observational skills and representing scientific material through visual language. *Note: This course counts as a Liberal Arts, Fine Arts, or Open Elective but not as a Lab Science Elective.
