Seeds, embryos, zygotes, and the seemingly unlimited energies of life.

A quick page from a sketchbook, as I have been spending some time contemplating the amazing energy and strength of embryos. Here is one translation – as I break down all those seemingly smooth elements of growth into my own vocabulary of machinery.

Looking at the various stages of embryonic development has me wondering about the microscopic world as well. There is something almost violent about watching a body form, and seeing all the various energies push and pull life to another stage. I find myself wondering what other battles and collisions are occurring right in front of (or on) us in the microscopic realm.
