Claudia Cárceles is the artist behind PAPAVER ART
Originally from Spain, but currently living in the small Caribbean island of Grenada, where I moved to work as medical illustrator at St. George’s University.
I am currently a full time muralist, creating big projects with my colleague and business partner Fari. You can find us on IG as @Pintur_gnd.
I am biologist & artist, specialized in scientific and medical illustration,
and murals.
Experienced in traditional techniques such as watercolour, graphite, colour pencil, acrylics, ink. Once in a while I like to immerse myself in the world of 3D and animation using programs such as ZBrush and Cinema 4D.
