Cheers and Beers
6th August 2021 is International Beer Day! It's always celebrated on the first Friday in August, by drinking beer of course. I don't typically consume a lot of beer myself, however, every once in a rare while, I have enjoyed a unique craft beer with fruity flavour notes.

Metamorphosis of a Butterfly
You may know that I participated in a Natural History Show in Toronto a few years ago where I could only show science + art works related to zoology, botany, ecology, anatomy, fossils or gem stones. Thus, I was faced with the challenge of creating art in a different field of study to what I usually do, yet having to stay true to my style of using molecule diagrams in my designs.
I came up an original science art piece about the chemistry within a Butterfly's Life Cycle. Read the full article to also see some photos of cool butterflies I've encountered in my life.
