48”x36” Oil on canvas

This painting of the magnificent sphenoid bone is a part of my Good Bones series, which focuses on appreciating what is beneath the surface. The sphenoid lives at the base of the cranium. Deceptively delicate-looking, the sphenoid is actually integral to the support of several critical structures: the eye orbit, the pituitary gland, and the brain itself. The beauty of this bone was the first inspiration for the entire series.
