Vision
We are translating science with clear, inclusive visuals to empower humans to understand our world better.
"Education is not the filling of a pail, but the lighting of a fire.”
– W.B. Yeats
Who are we?
Spark Life Science Visuals is a collective of talents in illustration, editorial, project management, and art development with 16+ years of experience together visually communicating science for digital, interactive and print projects. Our team consists of seasoned and accomplished professionals, uniting with the desire to create stunning content that will expand science literacy for years to come.
We are industry experts in higher education life science visuals whose talented contributions you can see across multiple disciplines in many of the most successful and acclaimed life science texts published in the last two decades.
We have worked with publishers such as Pearson Higher Education, W.W.Norton, Wiley, MacMillan Learning and McGraw Hill. Our member’s unparalleled creative and content expertise can be seen in Elaine Marieb’s series of Human Anatomy & Physiology titles, Jay Withgott's Environmental Science series and Michael T. Madigan's Brock Biology of Microorganisms.
Some of the many titles we were honoured to work on include Erin C. Amerman's Human Anatomy & Physiology, James Morris Biology: How Life Works, Lourdes P. Norman-McKay's Microbiology, and Roger Miesfeld's Biochemistry. We carried out art direction and editorial services and created entirely new illustrations for their first editions.
Keith L. Moore’s Clinically Oriented Anatomy (7e) was a complete overhaul of the art to improve anatomical accuracy and a unified colour palette and saw significant contributions and efforts from us in content and style development before its successful publication and launch into the educational marketplace.
Our involvement in the first edition of James J. Gross's Interactive Psychology was a proud first. We created the illustrations for immersive interactive learning modules that are aiming to improve a student's learning experience.
