Description New Tattoo. ATP molecule with clearwing hummingbird moth. Idea behind the design: ATP is an essential molecule needed for a vast array of metabolic processes in living things. When you think about what life is (a whole bunch of complex molecular reactions) it really is pretty fascinating (kind of corny, I know). Nature and chemistry are intrinsically connected. And hummingbird moths are awesome.

The artist is Jessa Huebing-Reitinger. [link]
She is amazing, best known for her insect paintings.

What a fantastic idea! I love the blend. Appeals to my horticulture obsession and my inner nerdiness. Just beautiful.

Great Concept!
Nicely done, too.
You could even do the whole yin yang thing and subtitle it, The science of nature.
