Bacteriophage in Green

A bacteriophage is a virus that infects bacteria. Within its protein head, it contains several genes worth of DNA that it can use to hijack the machinery of a bacterium and replicate itself. Really, one of the most metal of all biological creatures. It is used by biologists to transfer and incorporate foreign DNA into a bacterial genome.

This abstract representation of bacteriophage T4 is a print of an original watercolor painting. The loose, expressive ink and wash style is reminiscent of urban sketching.
