Ernst Heinrich Philipp August Haeckel was a German biologist, naturalist, philosopher, physician, professor and artist. I am interested in his meticulous documentation of speciecies of plants, animals. At the time he made his observations, microscopes were more advanced than cameras. Haeckel was criticised for distorting the forms and using excessive artistic license in their representation. I was drawn in by his detailed drawings of microscopic organisms. I have tried to recreate some of his drawings using fineline pen.

Why did the scarecrow get a nobel peace prize? Because he was outstanding in his field.
