Barbara Harmon's Company Details

B.Harmon Illustration designs and creates visuals used to explain scientific, biological, medical or veterinary concepts or processes. Barbara Harmon has been illustrating natural science and medicine for almost 20 years. In addition to working as a staff member for two museums and two teaching hospitals, she has operated her business as an independent contractor serving the fields of publishing, education and advertising. Her talents are evident in both traditional "board art" (watercolor, gouache, airbrush, pen and ink, scratchboard, colored pencil, oil, acrylic) as well as digital, through the use of Adobe (Photoshop, Illustrator) and other software. A Master's degree in Medical Illustration (University of Illinois at Chicago, 1990) and a Bachelor's degree in both Fine Art and Zoology (University of California, Berkeley, 1986) have provided her with the basics of the academic and technical tools she applies in creating her vivid images.
