Botanical Artwork Revivals

Ernst Haeckel Art Exhibit at the ASIFA-Hollywood Animation Archives

— January 24, 2010 — Lifestyle
Ernst Haeckel's botanical drawings show that art and science are a natural pair. His elaborate drawings of flora are exhibited at the ASIFA-Hollywood Animation Archives. The work of Ernst Haeckel provides great inspiration for including botanical drawings in all kinds of animation. His drawings of mushrooms look like they'd fit right into psychedelic 'Alice in Wonderland' sequences.
