Cold Quasar Science Illustration

Cold Quasar concept
Illustration I did for Professor Allison Kirkpatrick of Kansas University

I had the privilege of doing a science illustration for a press release on a new discovery of cold quasars! It was my first published science illustration. It was nice to put my physics knowledge to use! My degree is in biology and I spent a lot of time at university studying physics and chemistry.

The press release got picked up by Vice, Washington Post, Medium and other outlets!
