Biological illustration

 

Biological illustration is a specialized form of art that aims to accurately depict and communicate scientific information about living organisms. This type of illustration is commonly used in textbooks, scientific journals, field guides, and educational materials. Biological illustrators use a combination of artistic skill and scientific knowledge to create detailed and informative images of plants, animals, insects, and other living organisms. These illustrations may include anatomical features, life cycles, behaviors, and other aspects relevant to biology. The goal of biological illustration is to visually convey complex biological concepts in a clear and visually appealing manner, aiding in understanding and learning.
