In Summary:

Experimentation

Education


Notes:


    In Conclusion÷
    1. Experimentation is key to finding the correct answers when using a digital medium with which to render.
    2. Knowledge of illustration and rendering has always been needed and is still needed to achieve professional and accurate drawings for publication. A class in illustration would be a good addition to a standard curriculum in entomology.
    3. Dispel the myth - the computer is not the end for illustrators, but, rather it is a beginning!
    4. Karl Popper argues in his book, Conjectures and Refutations,
    ÏThat all scientific theories are no more than conjectures that are more or less well tested. Any theory may be disproved by observation or experiment and replaced by a new, better theoryÓ.
