Ernst Haeckel’s biologic drawings inspire both mystery and intrigue about the world around us. They are both beautiful depictions of what we can see with our naked eye and thoughtful interpretations of the beginning of microscopic imagery. His love for nature shines through to his artwork, and that is something to strive to achieve as an artist.

In this small series of ceramic creations, I used different experimental clay bodies, slips, and glaze to create my own interpretations of Haeckel’s drawings of biologic entities.
