Alex Donnelly

Alex grew up in the Chicagoland area. He has been interested in human anatomy since he can remember. He has a very special affinity for Gray’s Anatomy and thanks his mother for getting him his first copy at a very young age. Alex attended the University of Chicago with a concentration in political science. He also took fine art courses at the U of C. Alex received Master of Art and Master of Fine Art degrees from the University of Wisconsin-Madison. His professional art practice has primarily focused on human and non-human animal relationships and the human biological form.

Alex has worked in the legal industry for a decade as a litigation paralegal with a boutique law firm in Chicago. He intends to pursue further work in the legal industry in the medical legal community following graduation, where he hopes to continue to serve clients and build expertise in illustration, animation, and virtual, augmented and mixed reality environments.

Alex lives in the Chicagoland area with his wife, Rose, and two daughters. Outside of legal and artistic pursuits, Alex enjoys playing with his daughters, renovating properties, following popular science, reading hard science fiction and watching science fiction films.
