I'm still finding my feet here, so it feels right to share with you the first #JournalCover I ever got with my #sciart

I was a #postdoc at the time and I had 1 evening to produce something around the idea that virulence in #bacteria is often 'all about the #phage ... '

A lucky break for me!

very cool. What sort of stuff had you made with aquarelle/printmaking prior to this work?

@danwchan Thank you! This was my first go at it. To be honest, at the time, I didn't even know that it was an actual technique with a name. I was just making it up as I went along! I didn't have any lino to hand so used some thick card instead. It's more absorbent and gives different printing effects.

I got commissioned by #FEMSmicro to make a visual identity for their blog using this technique some time later...
Aquarelle print of a red, yellow and blue coronavirus with its looping RNA organised inside, which then loops out of the virus and turns into writing loops that join up to a pencil
A yellow aquarelle printed lightbulb full of red, green and blue microbe shapes
