From The Dictionary of Sidney
I regularly try to take a course that inspires my art and creativity. I just started one from the Univ of Newcastle, Australia, on Natural History Illustration.
This morning has been an introduction to historical illustrators from the Hunter Valley area in Australia. I have fallen in love with Helena and Harriet Scott’s work from the mid 19th century.
Their work is exquisite.
NOTE: There is actually an ap of their work. Talk about making the old new again!

Fascinating history! Thank you for sharing about these naturalist artists and showing some of their beautiful work. You’re an inspiration… What a wonderful idea to take courses such as this.
Thanks. This was a fantastic course. If you get the chance to audit it for free, give it a whirl. I paid for the certificate so I could go back and review the content later. Glad I did. It is packed with information.
Sounds so cool! I’ll look into it. Thanks!
