Studio 1482 Members Contribute Drawings to UN Healthcare Manual

lethargic_031.jpgThree Studio 1482 members, Eddie PenaMargaret Hurst and Veronica Lawlor, have contributed their time and drawings to illustrate a Health Care manual for a group working with the United Nations. The manual is being designed and produced by a studio called Design in Kind. Eddie’s illustrations were on infant illnesses and what symptoms to look for. His newborn son got his first experience of living with an illustrator - posing for drawings -  see above and below - convulsionfit_01.jpgAnd Eddie’s wife Rosanna also got into the illustrations - mothernursing_04.jpg  Here are some illustrations on post-partum healthcare created by Margaret Hurst - 334_05_wait-before-resuming-sex.jpgThe one above is about how long to wait before resuming sexual activity after giving birth. The one below is about eating leafy green vegetables to regain your strength… 334_04_leafy-veg.jpg Veronica Lawlor did some drawings on the topic of diabetes. Among them, one illustrated the importance of regular visits to a healthcare professional -regular-medical-care.jpg- and another was about how important it is to keep your skin clean, especially if you suffer from diabetes -keep-skin-clean.jpgTo see illustration used for communication to help people get and stay healthy is a wonderful thing. That’s what illustration is all about - a way to illuminate, to share ideas, and to communicate when words aren’t enough, or when languages are not understood. Studio 1482 was happy to contribute to such a worthy cause.

Studio 1482 member has reportage illustration exhibited in Newseum

a-muslim-man-speaks.jpgVeronica Lawlor, one of our Studio 1482 members, has her reportage work from September 11th exhibited in the newly opened Newseum, the Museum of Journalism in Washington DC. The drawing is in the History of the News Section, in an exhibited entitled, “Who Controls the News?” (Shown here is a drawing of a press conference held by Muslim religious leaders in Union Square Park a few days after the attacks.) Please click here for a link to the museum, or here for a link to our 9/11 blog site. Ms. Lawlor was in downtown New York on September 11, 2001, and made reportage drawings of the events as they unfolded. She continued the story, making reportage drawings of the Trade Center site and around New York City in the days and weeks that followed the attack. The collection has been exhibited at Montserrat College of Art in Massachusetts and in November, 2006 at the New York City Fire Museum. The reportage series will soon be released as a book: more information will follow on this blog site. We at the Studio are honored to be represented at the museum.
