Watercolor Bacteria and Cell Art

Washington, DC artist Michele Banks uses watercolors to achive artistic effects the old-fashioned way. Many of her paintings bring the beauty of microscopic life to a full-sized canvas.

Her works in Makers Market focus on biological and medical themes, particularly the microscopy of living cells. Shown above is Cell Division Blue 1, a 12 x 9″ canvas executing using a special “wet-on-wet” painting technique. Michele sells originals only and does not make prints.
