Did some sketching at the Shedd Aquarium earlier this week & will totally be back to do this again!

I fell in love with their Amazon Rising exhibit— fantastic place to observe some really neat species AND delightful exhibition design

what if you could bring a piece of your favorite museum exhibit home with you? check out a prototype i made to test the viability of a mobile-based exhibit experience!

explore symbiotic partnerships & (lovingly sculpted) 3D models of fungi 🍄✨ #SciArt #SciComm
