A miniature to commemorate our paper (Busch, S. E., & Khakhalin, A. S. (2019). Intrinsic temporal tuning of neurons in the optic tectum is shaped by multisensory experience. Journal of neurophysiology, 122(3), 1084-1096.) Acrylic on wood. Wasn't really used anywere, except for an announcement on Bard College biology website.

Laevis all we need, or the Vitruvian Tadpole
(ink pen, digital collage)
This work was conceived as a cover illustration for our autism model paper (Valproate-Induced Neurodevelopmental Deficits in Xenopus laevis Tadpoles. James EJ, Gu J, Ramirez-Vizcarrondo CM, Hasan M, Truszkowski TL, Tan Y, Oupravanh PM, Khakhalin AS, Aizenman CD. The Journal of Neuroscience. 2015. 35(7), 3218-3229.), but the journal rejected it as a cover (yes, I'm still bitter :), so it is unused and unpublished. If you'd like to use it for anything, let me know!

This image got lucky; it was used as a cover image for the European Journal of Neuroscience when the article was published in 2014, and for a poster of a neurosience conference at Cold Spring Harbor in 2015.
Collision avoidance circuitry in a Xenopus Tadpole (ink pen and acrylic on paper)
Here you can download two large, clean versions:
And here's an animated version of the same thing (click for a reasonably large-sized file)

A portrait of the tadpole as a green animal
(ink pen, photoshop)
First used in this paper: Excitation and inhibition in recurrent networks mediate collision avoidance in Xenopus tadpoles. Khakhalin AS, Koren D, Gu J, Xu H, Aizenman CD. European Journal of Neuroscience. 2014. 40(6), 2948–2962, now proudly sported by the official twitter of the Aizenman Lab (my alma pater).
