Artistic representations of scientific ideas.

You probably heard of graphical representations or info graphics. Opuntia Visual takes those principles and combines them with the aesthetics and exquisiteness of art. The combination of hand painted watercolors with digital media makes a unique visualization tool.

Science and art meet to communicate ideas for everybody. Opuntia Visual blog posts a new artistic representation every other Tuesday to please your eyes feeding your brain with scientific information. Enjoy!

The mission of Opuntia Visual is to communicate science for everyone, both scientific and non-scientific audiences. And there's also a version in Spanish! Opuntia Visual comes from the scientific name of the nopal (Opuntia cacti), a traditional Mexican cactus.

Opuntia Visual is created by Dr. Annabel Romero. For more information look at the bio page. If you're interested in any of the images shown here, contact Opuntia visual at: annabel.rohe@gmail.com or leave a message at the contact page.
