Meet Morgan Granzow
My name is Morgan Granzow and I am an artist from Southwest Michigan. I am a current student at the University of Michigan pursuing a Bachelor's degree in Fine Arts & Design in the Stamps program. My work mainly focuses on anatomical studies and the human body, creating work through the lens of scientific and medical illustration. The field of medical and scientific illustration is beautifully intricate and a necessity, as there is an intertwined relationship between science and art, one cannot exist without the other. Upon graduation from U of M, I will be attending the University of Dundee MSc Medical Art program in Dundee, Scotland.
I have done a wide range of commissions from working with Cell-MET and EEK! to working on projects with Michigan Medicine. I am the owner and sole-operator of MoMed Visuals LLC, my medical and scientific illustration company. Further information regarding commissions and art shows/recognitions is located below. If you are interested my work or would like to commission me, visit the CONTACT section or reach out via email!
As an artist and a Deaf individual, I feel the importance in educating society about the Deaf community and continue to share my story through my artwork and writing so that it may make the world more accessible for future generations. Throughout my work you will see bits and pieces of my story, as well as work inspired by my own experiences. Don't be afraid to ask questions and learn more about my life as a Deaf artist!
