Happy #Valentine’sDay throwback, look at some of my most beloved artworks, starting w/ “Art Department”—my autobiographical blending #metaphor & #symbolism to reflect my journey from art student to faculty. Its reception exceeded expectations, resonating across #AcademicDisciplines. #ArtSchool #Art

Valentine's day count down continues w/ highlighting a facet of Cajal. Against the wishes of his family, Cajal was resolved to marry Silveria Fañanás García. She was his steadfast companion & her role in his life underscores the profound human element behind his groundbreaking work. #Cajal #SciArt

The brain is a pattern-seeking machine, shaping identity through memory, perception & experience. Cajal mapped neurons—the “butterflies of the soul”—portraiture maps the inner self, capturing a moment in time that is both personal and universal. #Cajal #NeuroArt #SciArt @institutocajal.bsky.social

Throwing it back with butterflies, ponies, and pink ladies for Valentine’s Week. 💕🦋🎠 Cajal saw neurons as “butterflies of the soul,” capturing the fleeting beauty of thought itself. Pink impacts the brain in fascinating ways? Baker-Miller Pink has a sedative effect.
