Liana Matson Vitousek
I am an illustrator, graphic designer, and scientist whose mission is to cause people to take a second look at something they might otherwise find ordinary or uninteresting. Beauty lies in the little things, and I see it as my job to bring those little things to light.
As a science illustrator and designer, I cover a wide range of media and draw my inspiration from the natural world. After growing up splitting time between Hawaii and California, I received my Bachelor of Science in Natural Resource Ecology and a minor in Plant Biology at the University of Vermont. I have worked in two National Parks, helped conduct research on pollinator interactions within Vermont blueberry farms, and done two years of illustration and field work for the American Chestnut Foundation.
I now joyfully reside on California’s Central Coast, having moved here after completing CSUMB’s Science Illustration Graduate Program. I accept commissions and work of all types, feel free to contact below!
