Nitrogen

By Philip in 365 Designs

Nitrogen is essential to all life on earth. It is a fundamental building block of amino acids and thus of DNA. I wanted to take a look at a particularly important aspect of nitrogen today: as it is necessary for plant life, it is a primary constituent of fertilisers used to grow most of the food we eat. I had very little time in front of the computer today, so the following is a double page from my notebook I sketched on the train.

So rejoice, because nitrogen puts food on your plate.

  1. Do you have any plans to draw this one up? Because you should, it’s a neat design.

    If I have time I want to, yes, but I’m pretty busy at the moment!
