As a Gray Whale Census Biologist and Biological Illustrator I look closely, observe, and transfer what I see onto a two-dimensional surface.  The more we look deeply, the more we notice, the more information we can transfer and express.  Apply the Elements, Line, Shape, Value, and Texture to Draw what you see.  Use a magnified glass and your power of observation to draw natural objects.
