Ever Curious: Maryjo Koch and the Art of Scientific Illustration

The Eloise Pickard Smith Gallery is pleased to present “Ever Curious: Maryjo Koch and the Art of Scientific Illustration,” a solo exhibition of work by Maryjo Koch. As an artist, Koch combines a precise rendering of detail with elements of whimsy, speaking to a reverence and wonder for the natural world that is rooted in close observation. The exhibition includes a selection of original illustrations from the eighteen books she has published, as well as several unpublished works and mixed-media pieces. The works are accompanied by specimens from the natural history collections at the Ken Norris Center at UC Santa Cruz.

All artworks featured in the exhibition are available for purchase, and a portion of the proceeds will be donated to support the ongoing operation of the Eloise Pickard Smith Gallery.
