Over the last twenty years, environmental,
conservation and general wildlife issue's have come to
prominence.
Books are produced at a phenomenal rate for the general public for
every denunciation. With a few exceptions the majority are bland,
textbook tomes - and not very innovative.
There is room for improvement.
Alan (or more commonly "Al") Taylor is an Illustrator with not just
an artistic talent but a passion for Natural History in all it's
forms.
His ideal is to produce natural history illustrations that will
inspire others to share his fascination and love for the world
around us in all it's myriad forms.
"In the grand scheme of things, our
fragile planet has produced, through evolution or divine
intervention, an incredibly complex and diverse eco structure of
life. From basic amoeba to human beings, the phylogenic scale
contains "life forms" adapted to their environment which almost
defy belief.
"The odd, the unusual, and the bizarre are commonplace in nature.
Even the most everyday plant forms are highly complex organisms
with a part to play in our world.
"Through my illustrations I would like to share my sense of wonder
and awe with the rest of the world."
