I work with a bunch of really talented artists at Botanical Interests and am constantly in a state of humbled awe when I see the realism of botanical illustrators of all kinds. <br />I think the animal illustrations look almost like something Dali could have done. <br />All of this makes we want to revisit my favorite collection of botanical art in the Hortus Eystettensis. If you've never seen it, it comes highly recommended.Botanical Ryanhttp://www.inthegardenwithjudy.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14573299.post-6407544125241804332011-10-24T13:28:25.557-05:002011-10-24T13:28:25.557-05:00@Ann, While I never wanted to be an illustrator I ...@Ann, While I never wanted to be an illustrator I wish I could do botanical illustrations. <br /><br />@Julie, Aren't they great? I love botanical illustrations too. <br /><br />@Marsha, No, thank you for the intro to Ernst Haeckel. I just saw his Nepenthaceae illustration and was blown away. <br /><br />@Gatsbys Gardens, I agree. I definitely wouldn't mind having a number of these hanging in my home. The book's author owns an art gallery that specializing in these educational wall charts and I'd love to go see some in person. <br /><br />@Tom, LOL. I know the feeling. Looking at botanical illustrations can become an addiction.MrBrownThumbhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11326733084344581944noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14573299.post-29407200101031268992011-10-23T19:40:53.754-05:002011-10-23T19:40:53.754-05:00I've always loved illustrations like these!
