US Diatoms- Artist Feature

A diatom taxonomist classified some of the genera in my paintings. They did a feature on my work on the US Diatoms site at the University of Colorado. They focus on the taxonomy of freshwater species but are working on expanding. Check out some of the diatoms on their site as it's absolutely gorgeous. It's not everyday that my work gets classified by a scientist. This is so cool! They actually said that I illustrate more diatom genera but but they all don't appear on the site. It looks like I have some work to do.

Read about it on the following link.
