What Others Are Saying

"Charon has done fantastic work on a variety of illustrations for my research and science communication projects. These run the spectrum from a detailed reconstruction of a crushed fossil turtle skull for use in a scientific paper, to a life restoration of extinct three-toed horses for our public outreach program. Working with Charon is a truly collaborative experience--as we start a project, we work together to figure out scope and the important features to illustrate. She's efficient and effective when getting and implementing feedback, and I'm always blown away by the end result! Whether it's detailed morphology or idealized schematics, Charon does great work."
Dr. Andrew Farke, Curator of Paleontology, Raymond M. Alf Museum of Paleontology

“In the five years I have collaborated with Charon Henning in her role as Art Director for March Mammal Madness I have been perennially impressed by her creative vision and professionalism. Charon’s illustrations are not only exquisite artistically, but meticulous in their scientific accuracy. She is adept at numerous techniques and is exceptional at pairing the subject with the media to achieve powerful visual impact. For centuries, scholars entwined life science and artistic expression and Charon wonderfully revives this facet of natural history.”

“Charon came highly recommended by many friends in my community. She was responsive to my inquiries and easy to communicate with. She was wonderful in helping me figure out what would be the best way to achieve the result I wanted. The experience itself was excellent. Charon is skillful, gentle and FAST! Her Energy is gentle and focused. She is open to collaborating on whatever you need for your experience and is extremely attendant to cleanliness. I felt honored and respected the entire time and not at all like I was in her way or ruining her vibe. In a time where every little town has a tattoo studio, and those studios come and go so quickly, I highly recommend the experience of art with Charon Henning. She is a masterful artist with technical experience that allows her an eye for detail and color hard to match anywhere else. FIVE STARS! (Can I give 6? … I like the number 6 better…).”

“I have known Charon for over 15 years, and during that time, she has constantly impressed with her relational, artistic, and business acumen. Charon does the necessary work of asking strong questions and listening deeply to her clients and colleagues, always responding respectfully to the goals, vision, and guidelines of the project with unique suggestions that result in beautiful, accurate creative work. I am so pleased to know Charon as a creative colleague, and even more so as my friend.”
