Not all of us have access to places of natural beauty. Even when we do it can be difficult to identify keystone flora and fauna or the intrinsic and instrumental value of certain landscapes. Infographic scientific illustrations help to share the many benefits of native habitats to a wide variety of viewers. These images can help viewers understand lifecycles, animal food sources, plant identification, the importance of biodiversity and much more! Learn about the research, process and practical application of scientific infographics and their utility in helping to preserve fragile ecosystems.

J. Spahr is a scientific illustrator with a masters degree in scientific illustration from Maastricht University and Zuyd University. As a freelance illustrator, Spahr works for science centers, botanical gardens, universities and publishers. Her illustrations are found in places such as The Journal of Wildlife Research, The Journal of Comparative Biology, The Brevard Zoo, Florida Fish and Wildlife, Maryland State Parks System and more. Her passion is creating hyper-realistic infographics that demystify the importance of fragile habitats and creatures for the general public. Her goal as an illustrator is to connect audiences with their surroundings in order to inspire people to preserve them.
