Natural history

I'm wildly happy to examine Katie Scott's work in whatever media she choses. She does advertisements and fabric design as well as book illustration.

A lovely cover, 2wonderY! I can see how the artistic style would lend itself to fabric design. I liked the muted colors and intricate designs.

>2 brodiew2: There are links to her other work on her author page, too. Her fabrics mix subject matter in whimsical ways.

And to represent the classic side, Louis Agassiz Fuertes illustrated birds and mammals at the turn of the last century.

I know it's fantasy, but that was part of why I really like these covers for Marie Brennan's series; I like the whimsy of putting dragons in the scientific world.

>5 humouress: that is so poetic!

And let's not forget James Gurney's contribution to the natural science of dinosaurs.
