Featured science art has been a part of the Read More Science Book Club monthly newsletter for a few months now, but for #Inktober, I’m bringing it to the blog to celebrate all the science-inspired art of October. Read More Science is proud to support the scientific artists and illustrators working hard every day this month to present beautiful #SciArt to the online community. Artwork is an important aspect of science communication! At the end of each week in October, I will post a round up of work that caught my eye for you to enjoy here on readmorescience.com.
You can help support these artists and their work by following them on Twitter, purchasing artwork (if they sell online), or simply by liking and retweeting their #Inktober work. Follow along with this Twitter list to stay up to date: https://twitter.com/IAmSciArt/lists/inktober2018sciartists. If you see any art you’d like to share or would like your own to be featured, tag me on Twitter or Instagram @ReadMoreScience.
Wow, the second week of October gave us some absolutely beautiful artwork! I hope you’ll enjoy the following snippets – I wish I could have included ALL of them, but you can find more on Twitter.

Day 14 of #Inktober: Clock …. and a Congo themed fish for #SundayFishSketch! Mormyrus rume – one of the many elephantfishes that are capable of generating electrical fields! Pay attention to the clock, because they prefer feeding at night! #SciArt #FishSci pic.twitter.com/B3stJKXFhL
