Happy Juneteenth! Here's a #ThrowbackThursday to a painting of the Sallie Tiernan Field House at my alma mater Scripps College. Recently I did a day-trip out to Claremont to show my friends around my old stomping grounds - it was so pleasant and nostalgic!

What's a unique everyday use for your professional skills that people may not associate with your background? For example, I am a chemist and there is no stain I can't remove. 🧪👩‍🔬🥽🍎 #chemistry #physics #biology #engineering #stem #edusky #math

Megara pencil tests.

Several scenes I'd animated of Meg in "Hercules".
I would have done very rough drawings at first...these scenes are my final drawings before it moved to the "clean-up" dept.
Hercules was animated by Andreas Deja.
