What's a Scientific Illustrator?
Medical and scientific illustrators combine drawing skills with their knowledge of biology or other sciences to draw accurate pictures of all things science. For example, a medical illustrator draws parts of the body or surgical procedures, while a scientific illustrator may draw animal and plant life, atomic and molecular structures, or geologic and planetary formations. Scientific illustrators earn between $26,000 and $40,000.
