About

heart :: body // Visual Goldfish :: von Glahn

The site is dedicated to communication- what website isn’t? The creations you will find here are typically medical in nature, yet no more beautiful than the flowers and photographs in the pages. They will hopefully teach and (in my wildest hopes) inspire some thought. // The writing will often be tongue in cheek. I rarely write much- with a cadre of writer-friends who have drilled awareness into my brain I’ve grown conscious of my skills. They are less opinionated on the matter of art however, and that is my loophole. Everybody wins. // Regarding medical illustration- it is not a field for the squeamish. But once you think about it, the art is vital to us all. If you curious to learn more, check out The Association of Medical Illustrators.
