I create art - mostly paintings - exploring themes from science and medicine, including images such as viruses, bacteria, and plant and animal cells. I've looked at how these organisms affect humans, and in turn how we affect them, through climate change, antibiotic use and other impacts on the earth. I'm a self-taught painter with no academic qualifications in either art or science. My work has been exhibited at the NIH, AAAS and the Society for Neuroscience, in galleries and festivals, and on the covers of books and journals.
