So, then I got lucky- got a scholarship to work on a summer dig at Chavín de Huantar (@monumentochavin) an amazing archaeological site in the Peruvian Andes!
There I realized that people visualized science for a living. And I was immediately hooked!

Chavín is an amazing pre-Incan Unesco site, with some of the first evidence of organized religion.
Pilgrims would come, imbibe drugs, and go into underground tunnels, with light shafts and water chutes to create drama so stone carvings seemed like a personal encounter with god!

But, I discovered something else there - drawing lithics! When you draw a #lithic, you have to know how it was made. You start at the point of percussion (first impact) and work out, mapping chips and depths. So much info from #penandink!

Here's a thread on how I make scientific illustrations for describing new species of invertebrates #sciencetwitter #art #science #illustration #taxonomy #teaminvert
My favorite way to learn a new group of inverts is to describe & draw a new species. You have to do all this research on known species so you learn a lot. Then you do detailed drawings that ensure you learn each structure. Hard to forget something you spent hours drawing
The end result is a series of drawings like this that show important anatomical structures that are used to identify different species #draw #science #art #scienceillustration

I've intended to do this for a while - a thread on Indian #penandink artists of the yore; some of them, a big influence on my own #art. Starting with the legend that is #Namboothiri. 🖋️
