The synapse seen up close — neurotransmitters crossing the gap to dock with their receptors, the molecular chemistry behind every signal in the brain. This watercolor renders that exchange in vivid, colorful detail.
Rooted in the neuroscience a researcher knows well, and lit by a clean, luminous palette, it makes an invisible process feel alive. Created from original watercolors and digitally enhanced for clean, vibrant detail.
A distinctive fit for neuroscience labs, neurology and psychiatry clinics, and a gift for a neuroscientist, neurologist or psychiatrist.

Our Papers
Fine Art Print — smooth archival matte paper, 230gsm, acid-free, printed with long-lasting pigment inks. A clean, glare-free finish that keeps highlights open and tones true, for crisp and consistent colour. Ready for any frame.
Premium Giclée — Hahnemühle German Etching®, 310gsm, museum grade. A mould-made art paper with the authentic texture of traditional watercolor paper: light catches it the way it catches an original. Heavier in the hand, gallery quality, and crisp down to the finest line.
German Etching is made almost without optical brighteners — the additives that make paper look whiter, but fade with light exposure. It means the whites stay where they are, instead of yellowing over the years.
Both are printed with pigment inks and shipped unframed, ready for a frame of your choice. Availability may vary by country.
