Field Notes Botanical Illustration
Field Notes is a conservation focused project that illustrates the often overlooked details of nature, highlighting native plants and moths from remote regions. Each specimen is carefully observed and documented under magnification, capturing everything from the veins of a leaf to the patterns of a moth's wings. Traditional scientific drawing methods are used to record the specimens, then digitally refined to enhance depth and clarity. Inspired by the precision of natural history museums, the project offers a close-up perspective of these specimens and their role in the environment.
Seraphina Sol collaborates with researchers, scientists, architects, and design firms to visually interpret and communicate their work through illustration.
The project is translated in over 100 languages. Field Notes opens its dialogue to audiences and design communities around the world.
Field Notes Botanical Illustration received an Iron A’ Design Award in the 2025 Graphics, Illustration and Visual Communication Design Award Category.
