Abstract
<p>Nature - a diminishing and irreplaceable natural resource. We need nature, yet we destroy it. How then do we initiate care for it?</p><p> As a natural history illustrator, I am aware that land recording today must not merely analyse the land, it must also stimulate our sensitivity to the natural environment, if we are to encourage care for it.</p><p> In order to develop my process ofland recording, I embark on a journey of creative research through four environments exploring fact, emotion, and engagement with each landscape through one insightful, yet unassuming question, "How can I show you why I love this place?"</p><p> The results manifest themselves in a series of artworks of these environments created using a framework of questions that I address to each one. </p>
