The Lamar Dodd School of Art at the University of Georgia (UGA) is thrilled to announce the appointment of Rachel Waldrop (née Reese) as Director and Curator of the Dodd Galleries and Athenaeum, a non-collecting contemporary art venue affiliated with UGA. 

In ARGD 4080: ZBrush for Scientific Illustration this spring, students are learning to integrate their digital sculptures into Cinema 4D, an industry-standard animation and modeling software program. Under the direction of our area chair for scientific illustration, Amanda Manowski, this semester marks the first time Cinema 4D has been formally taught to our scientific illustration students, allowing them to begin building a solid foundation as multimedia artists early in their careers.
