Super-sizing Invertebrates
Developing Ideas
For centuries, artists have used careful and detailed drawings to better understand living things. The detailed drawings by naturalist Charles Darwin helped us better understand living things from around the world. Today the artists Levon Biss and Regina Silveira are using a more modern approach to capturing the detail of invertebrates.
The work of these artists are inspiring our own drawings of invertebrates as we put our scientific knowledge and drawing skills to good use.
