I have always loved botanical illustration, and it's something I can relate to, you see, both my parents are agronomists and I used to watch their books when I was little :) I think it's lovely how much work and detail goes into an illustration of this kind.
"The job requires great artistic skill, attention to fine detail, and technical botanical knowledge. Typical illustrations will be in watercolour, in life size, or if not, the scale shown, and show face and reverse of leaves, flowers, bud, seed and root system."
