Hi #PortfolioDay!
I'm Marina, a science illustrator and paleoartist. I draw about nature, history and sometimes fantasy, but mainly I recreate scenes of human life in the past with a focus on children in the archaeological record 😊

This illustration is based on the #paleodiet of my ancient fellow countrywoman, the Red Lady of El Mirón, which consisted of meat, different kinds of mushrooms and salmon. She would have also completed her meals with vegetables and fruits available at the time.

¿Qué prejuicios tenemos sobre los Homo sapiens del Paleolítico?🤔
Dentro de nuestro programa “Altamira para escolares”, reflexionamos de forma crítica sobre las ilustraciones con las que transmitimos una imagen del pasado.

Who can join the #6thVCWAP?
Absolutely everyone!
The VCWAP aims to highlight the work of early-career women scientists and paleoartists.
These are the voices we want to put forward!
But that doesn’t mean others are not welcome: quite the opposite! 👉 We need everyone to make this event meaningful ⬇️

Had a great time last week talking about my workflow to create scientific reconstructions of prehistory along author Pedro Lima and researcher Verónica Fernández. I'm so looking forward to future collaborations with these wonderful people.

Last week I taught at my first #archaeologydrawing workshop during the Tribus del Íber Fest in the north of Spain. ¡It was great!
So thankful for everyone who joined me and spent a beautiful evening drawing, chatting about artifacts and discussing the role of #artists in #archaeology.

A paleo-commission from last year for the #experimentalarchaeology program for schoolers at @museodealtamira.bsky.social
I designed the #illustration and the layout of the brochure in order to focus the attention on the pigments and tools used to paint the bisons within the #Altamira cave.
