One of the pieces was a painting, From the Laboratory of Barbara McClintock, by Elizabeth Turnbull, a Texas born artist who has called Long Island home for over 10 years. Through their mutual involvement with LIAFA, Beth met Dr. van de Stouwe who helped with a very special favor from the CSHL archives: Beth was able to borrow some of the tools and implements from Nobelist Barbara McClintock鈥檚 laboratory, to paint the still life.
Beth鈥檚 painting was just named a finalist in the Still Life category at the .
Congratulations Beth! We鈥檙e so happy to see these tools of science so beautifully inspire your art.
Happy Birthday Barbara McClintock, born June 16, 1902—and still inspiring the world of science!
