Ayla Paul

Ayla is an artist and full-time PhD Researcher in Environmental Science at the University of Reading . Her research focuses on the provenance of UK honey, through stable isotope analysis, melissopalynology (identification of pollen in honey) and DNA analysis. In her spare time she creates her art, which is mainly black pen drawings and lino printing. Her work is inspired by our (natural) world and its beauty. With a background in Graphic Design she also enjoys creating digital art and design projects. Her work is available to purchase through her Etsy shop: www.etsy.com/shop/aylapaulart and her portfolio is visible at www.aylapaul.nl.
