Why have we invited the Guild?
GNSI members create superb visual imagery!
In order demonstrate the value of HIGH quality, original content
developed for the visualization of ideas in teaching,
the Digtial Academy has invited some of the
world's best image makers to participate.
As educator-artists, there are no better content creators
than GNSI members, who chose to use best practices for
visualization, mentor fellow illustrators through constructive criticism, and
communicate with each other worldwide via a written and digital dialog.
