Wildlife Illustration

This photograph is a diary note for my Dad who started the first specialist wildlife illustration course in the UK back in the late seventies at Dyfed College of Art. I think this particular gallery is a new addition to the NHM but it specialises in wildlife illustration from across the last few hundred years, and is a real treat to see. It was especially quiet when we were there and the kids were able to draw on the floor in peace and quiet.

It looks at the work of contemporary artists and various printmaking processes such as woodcut and etching etc, and also encourages youngsters to join in the fun....
