Scumble:"A painting technique in which semi-opaque or thin opaque colors are loosely brushed over an underpainted area so that patches of the color beneath show through."
From The Artist's Handbook, by Ray Smith.
Highlighting recent posts I found interesting, provocative, or otherwise caught my eye from the Science Artists Feed, and other sources.
Time to brew yourself a cup something caffeine-y, put your feet up and enjoy the science-art!

I am really impressed with Tessa Farmer's work (featured in "Control over nature in music and art") - she has constructed an intricate and imaginative natural history of the fairies. Nice pick!
It's creepy and wonderful, isn't it?
