Book Description
We seek inspiration in nature. The giver of life, it displays complex lines interwoven with each other, comfortable colour palettes, or atmospheres that set distinct moods. Illustration, on the other hand, is a timeless and layered artform that never fails to be striking and full of character. When nature meets illustration, a powerful dynamic is created. Flora & Fauna explores how nature-themed illustration is incorporated into branding and identities. Featuring project types such as branding, packaging, print ads, art pieces and stationary design, groovy plants dominate a diverse mix of illustration-based work made with special production techniques and discrete styles.

Flora and Fauna of the Civil War

Author: Kelby Ouchley
Publisher: LSU Press
ISBN: 0807137995
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 280

Book Description
During the Civil War, humans impacted plants and animals on an unprecedented scale as soldiers on both sides waged the most environmentally destructive war ever on American soil. In Flora and Fauna of the Civil War, Kelby Ouchley blends traditional and natural history to create a unique text that explores both the impact of the Civil War on the surrounding environment and the reciprocal influence of plants and animals on the war effort. After discussing the physical setting of the war and exploring humans' attitudes toward nature during the Civil War period, Ouchley presents the flora and fauna by individual species or closely related group in the words of the participants themselves. Collectively, no better sources exist to reveal human attitudes toward the environment in the Civil War era.
