Every species requires another to exist. In this course, the illustrator Pascale-Marie will teach you to investigate the relationships that exist between the species of an ecosystem and then translate them on paper using ink and watercolor.
You will focus on the colors, textures, and shapes of the flora and fauna, which you will end up applying to a collection of products you have created. You will use scientific information in order to create works with a solid foundation and you will have fun composing naturalistic illustrations.

Pascale-Marie is inspired by the work of ancient scientific illustrators. He has collaborated with different clients, portraying fauna and flora from scientific observation and promoting their knowledge from a visual language.
His most recent work is dedicated to studying and delving into families of species that inhabit Chile and raising informative and illustrated material that speaks of ecosystem imaginaries through research.
Now, her horizons have expanded towards new supports where she can apply her works in the form of products such as textile pieces, stationery, among others.
