About the art and science:
The “Twisting Helix” artwork begins with pencil on paper to shape the composition; then, portions are painted and digitized. Using digital tools, I add layers of translucent colors to capture the double helix’s flowing shape and dynamic quality.
DNA in the nucleus is packaged into chromosomes that twist and bend to bring parts close together to activate genes. The framed examples of “Twistling Helix” designs below celebrate our genome’s dynamic quality. “Turquoise Indigo Lime” is on the left, and “Sapphire Violet Jade” is on the right.
