Cancer cells, HIV and Ebola by Alexey Kashpersky

It's difficult not to get drawn in by Alexey Kashpersky's stunning digital illustrations of what look like otherworldly creatures. The Ukrainian artist creates mesmerizing pictures of cancer cells, neurons, blood clotting, and a myriad of viruses and bacteria to let viewers explore the world of medicine and microbiology. To accomplish these stark 3D images, he uses various computer graphics software applications such as Nuke, ZBrush, 3ds Max, V-Ray, Photoshop and After Effects.

Alexey, who I discovered through The Pipetteer, has a Master of Visual and Decorative and Applied Arts degree. He is the recipient of several awards in the field of 3D graphics, and his work has been published in numerous books and magazines. The Poltava native now lives in New Jersey where he works as a 3D artist at Radius Digital Science. He is a member of the Association of Medical Illustrators.

The real mission is to capture valuable scientific data: examining how quickly an eagle can gain altitude and precisely how its incredible wings are adapted to achieve such breathtaking, effortless lift.

The Adorable Sculptures of Yen Yen Lo

These images are from a series of wall sculptures created by Yen Yen Lo . Here you can see her intricately textured ceramic pieces, looking downright adorable. Yen Yen Lo's eye for the unique and whimsical is delightful. Apparently they are not intended for kids under 16. Fifteen-year-olds cannot be trusted with fragile stuff. Get them a Funko Pop instead.
