About
Victoria Visser (@arthubofbubba) is an MSc in Immunology graduate and an artist passionate about health and science communication. She trained in pencil drawing under realist artist Melissa Schatzmann and watercolor painting under Sharon Bower. As a pre-teen, she sold her watercolor greeting cards at local markets in Belleville, ON and in university, she sold paintings for a Project Sunshine Canada fundraiser through her social media.
During her graduate studies at the University of Toronto, she discovered the importance of visual discernment during dissections, surgeries, and laboratory procedures. This inspired her to merge her scientific knowledge and creative skills to make complex ideas more accessible through visual media. Her background in research and communication equips her with the tools to translate scientific information into effective design.

Please Read:
Commercial commissions include pieces that you will use for publications and/or monetary gain. Personal commissions include pieces for your own use or educational purposes (example: for your trainees/students)
When I respond with a quote, I will ask to meet with you virtually first to go over your expectations and create a draft/sketch of your idea. Once you approve of the idea, I will send you an agreement to sign. I will ask for a non-refundable portion of the total cost as a deposit for the cost of materials.
I will send you process work for your feedback at different stages to ensure we capture your vision.
For procedures and other non-reference based works, I can work off of detailed descriptions or if you are Toronto-based, I can travel to view and make sketches of the protocol for a small fee for my time and transit expenses.
