Noel Badges Pugh





 
Noel Badges Pugh creates scientific illustrations as well as artwork with a more psychedelic perspective. Inspired by nature and dreams, all's created with an utmost appreciation for the details and structure of each subject.
 
I've chosen to look at Noel because his work is amazing, not only is he clearly a fine artist but he looks at the scientific meaning within flowers and uses his drawing techniques to express this again similar to Georgia O'keefe he likes to look at the reproductive side of flowers and the biology within it. It isn't rare to find an artist that both shares a strong interest in science and fine art because i believe they both come together as one. He uses allot of colour within his work but doesn't stay true to the colour pallet of the actual flower, he uses fine lines which i use a lot of within my own work, it helps to create lengths of detail and fine marks which i love to create within my own work. His work captures more of the photographic side of flowers, he does this with his expression of detail, it is almost as if he has taken a photographic and changed it with an effect with photoshop the detail is incredible. Although his line work is very minimal if you look up close, which is rather surprising when you see the detail that he does manage to re-create. I have created some post card outcomes using the style in which Noel draws using again minimal line and colour (black and white).
