Jeffrey Simmons Geometries in Watercolor

Jeffrey Simmons born 1968 is a painter, living in Seattle, Washington. He is represented by Greg Kucera Gallery, Inc. The artist uses of a table top mounted, rotating platform, to make many of the watercolors works sets.

The watercolors are built up, layer by layer, beginning with the lightest of washes…I continue painting increasingly darker, narrower rings until I arrive at a fine line at the center of the original ring. That line, the darkest color, has all of the previous colors underneath it…If successful, I want the paintings to have the appearance of something inevitable, if not wholly predictable.

See works in progress at jeffreysimmons.tumblr.com and follow him on Instagram.

I’ll never let something get that far out of my control again.

Getting back at it, one rainy day at a time. #jimjames

HIV virus particle, budding influenza virus and HIV in blood serum as illustrated by David S. Goodsell.

Goodsell is a professor at the Scripps Research Institute and is widely known for his scientific illustrations of life at a molecular scale. The illustrations are usually based on electron microscopy images and available protein structure data, which makes them more or less accurate. Each month a new illustrated protein structure can be found in Protein Data Bank molecule of the month section and you can read more on how his art is made here.
