Sarah Mientka

Sarah is originally from from Evergreen, Colorado. She received her bachelor of arts at Iowa State University for Biological/Pre-Medical Illustration. She have always had a strong interest in art and animals. As a child Sarah had always wanted to become a veterinarian, it wasn’t until high school when her uncle uncle (a veterinarian) suggested looking into medical illustration. From then on Sarah knew that it was the perfect career.

Here at UIC Sarah continues her interest in anatomy and comparative veterinary anatomy through exploration with traditional practices, such as graphite and colored pencil, as well as digital media in photoshop, illustrator and 3D modeling.

In the future she would love to expand and enhance the world of veterinary visualization, including surgeries, and comparative anatomy.
