Is there a way for a kid to blend physics and art into a career? She can't make up her mind which way to go, so I thought I would see if there are any suggestions out there that use both.

Sometimes illustrators are needed for publications like textbooks (especially for primary and secondary school students where pretty pictures illustrating concepts can be more important and useful than lots of words or boring line diagrams like the college students need), or books intended for the lay reader.
Ms Music said:These are all great ideas! We will watch the videos and look at the links later.
And yes, she is only 13 so she has plenty of time. This is only for fun! Maybe it will give her some direction, maybe not. But it is always interesting to think of all the potential. She enjoyed hearing the ideas last night, and I am sure even more so today as there are many new ideas today!
There are several career options that combine physics and art, such as scientific illustration, medical illustration, animation, graphic design, and industrial design.
Yes, it is possible to combine both physics and art in a career. Many fields such as animation and industrial design require knowledge of both disciplines.
Kids who are interested in pursuing a career in both physics and art should have a strong understanding of math and science, as well as a creative and artistic mindset. They should also have good problem-solving, critical thinking, and communication skills.
There is no specific educational path for this type of career as it depends on the specific field or job. However, it is recommended that kids take courses in both physics and art during their education to develop a strong foundation in both disciplines.
Combining physics and art in a career allows for a unique and diverse skill set that can lead to a variety of job opportunities. It also allows for the use of both the left and right sides of the brain, leading to a more well-rounded and creative approach to problem-solving.
