Mathematician #BenoitMandelbrot, known as the father of fractal geometry, was born #OTD in 1924.
Next time you see a pattern of ice crystals forming on a window, look at the spirals of pinecone seeds, or cook some Romanesco broccoli....think of him.
This is the design I created for Marie Tharp who was born #OTD 100 years ago (1920-2006)
Tharp was a geologist and cartographer who helped create the first map of the ocean floor, proving that it was not just the flat surface most people believed it to be. (1/3)

Still feeling creatively frozen so sharing these two designs from my author series again. Each one contains imagery to represent four books by the author.

Thanks for the feedback on the new Caroline Herschel design ❤️

Life is crazy, but art is still happening. Working on a design is for Caroline Herschel, the first women to discover a comet and the world's first professional woman astronomer 🔭
@ReadMoreScience @froodie AGREED. She was hardcore. Discovered lambda phage, implemented replica plating, and made so little money as a teaching assistant at Stanford that she sometimes resorted to eating frog legs left over after dissections 🐸
