Biological Science: An Investigation

Watercolour 28x28cm

So, What's it all about then? I have tried to capture the whole of the field of biology in one image. Umm perhaps I was a little over ambitious?

Can you find the anemone or the spider's lung book? The centipede should be easy to see!

The picture is presented as a swab or sample placed on a microscope slide. There are macroscopic and microscopic structures, body parts and fossil remains combined. I wanted to give you, the viewer, the feeling of finding things out and investigating for yourself, so while I know what everything is and where it has come from, you, the viewer, may completely disagree and that is fine! I also wanted an image that one could look at over again and perhaps see something new in it each time.
