Etching the Neural Landscape.

The article discusses a neuroscientist-artist whose inspiration is drawn from materials and techniques of Asian scroll painting to visualize the complex neural circuitry of the brain. Topics include the author's experimentation of merging microscopic imagery with Asian scroll painting, his painting techniques of blowing ink across paper to recreate dendritic forms and microetching, and his quest to depict the brain's complexity by adding reflective dimensions.
