About.

Katie Best is an Atlanta based artist who graduated from Oglethorpe University with a BA in Medical and Scientific Illustrations.

Katie specializes in oil and acrylic paintings, graphite and charcoal drawings, film photography, and digital media.

The delicate balance of art and science in everyday life inspires her to create work that reflects this observation. Since a young age, she has explored this relationship and her professional aspirations of being a full-time medical animator. Katie hopes to achieve inspiring others to appreciate this conversation of scientific art.

“I am determined to inspire others to see the world as I do: an intricate dance between science and art.”

“Sciences provide an understanding of a universal experience; arts are a universal understanding of a personal experience… they are both a part of us and a manifestation of the same thing. the arts and sciences are avatars of human creativity.”
