Art can be a welcoming bridge for learners and users to engage with and learn tools and skills in R. As RStudio’s first Artist-in-Residence, my goal has been to make the R landscape more welcoming for a broader community of users through engaging, didactic artwork. In this R, art, and heart-filled talk, I’ll share the motivation behind my R artwork and some lessons learned over the past year as Artist-in-Residence, including:

Learning to embrace cute and credible artwork
Art to help students engage with, learn and remember R skills
Art for community building and support
I hope this talk inspires viewers to use, create and share more artwork, so that together we can make the R landscape feel even brighter.
