Studio - Scientific illustrations

example of a scientific botanical illustration


After looking at an artist called Marianne North and how she went against the scientific botanical images, i decided i wanted to do the opposite. i liked the clinical and scientific look of these illustrations she decided to go against. 









I'd drawn in this style before many times and it has become unique to me. it looks similar to the scientific images i found and i think it works better than just a photograph next to the baby image as it looks more organic and fitting.











Id like to present this image on the wall with just the text "Gladiolus, the August birth flower".

instead of just looking at one persons life i want to experiment with looking at multiple generations of the same family. for example my own; me, my mum and my grandmother. i want to experiment with the text which i put next to each image. whether it be a mini biography of each person demonstrating how each generation has been brought up differently and how the times have changed between each one, or whether it be a simple depiction of what the image (or the flower) is.
