Recently I participated in a Zoom gallery reception by Tomato Mouse Gallery. While the organizers certainly deserve a round of applause for setting up such a great event, looking at my works on Zoom made it painfully obvious to me how difficult it is to portray the 3rd dimension of my work on a screen....

Sometimes I like to play around with pictures of my SciArt to see what else it could look like. The image of “Attraction” has always made me think of a fan. In reality it is actually based on an image of stem cells that give birth to neurons. You can read more about it here.... Continue Reading →
Close your eyes and imagine you’re a wealthy collector who’s just entered a gallery in an art museum. On the wall facing you there are two gigantic canvases, each more than 10 feet tall. Both paintings depict a harbor at sunset. From across the room, they look identical: the same ships, the same reflections on... Continue Reading →
Beauty is in the eye of the beholder. This phrase often gets thrown around when people compare their opinions of whether something (or someone) is attractive or not. Its most common interpretation is that the concept of beauty is subjective and different people may like different things. But can we put a different spin on... Continue Reading →

Then I spent another month thinking of the engineering logistics needed to put it together. ... Continue Reading →

For the past few months, I have been dabbling in small projects here and there, but have kind of put an unintentional hold on my real SciArt. Of course, I created the sculpture for “The Brain Project” for a summer exhibition in Toronto. But otherwise... Continue Reading →
After spending a few months working on and off on this project, I can finally say that squirrel and its home are finished. You can read more about the early stages of this project here. I intentionally made the painting relatively simple, so that I could embellish it with some beads and allow the squirrel... Continue Reading →
When somebody mentions the "stages of grief", what comes to mind? Is it necessarily death or the loss of a loved one? Is it necessarily tied to losing a person (or perhaps pet), or can it be applicable to inanimate things as well? For example, could it be related to a certain stage in your... Continue Reading →
Several months ago, I created a squirrel brooch, which I then neglected to photograph for quite some time. Initially, I was planning to offer it by itself in my Etsy Shop, but after seeing it on my desk for so long, a new idea crossed my mind. I wondered if it can serve more than... Continue Reading →
