The post Robert Steven Connett’s Nature Illustrations are as Weird as They Come appeared first on Wallpaper Data.
]]>Connett’s life story proves that it’s never too late to become an artist since he worked in many different industries before becoming a full-time artist in his 50s. After losing his home in a fire, he decided to leave his career in insurance behind and worked several failed jobs before finding his true calling as an artist.
He started drawing because he loves seeing his imagination come to life and the process of creating art brings him peace that he can’t attain any other way.
“[My art is] still how I illustrate my feelings about the world, but it’s modified by my wish to create order and beauty. I use my work as a vehicle to take me to another world, one of my own creation. I’m honored to share that world and thrilled that others can relate to it in their own way,” he explains on his official website.
Connett’s drawings will transport you to a whimsical world that takes inspiration from our own while also looking completely unique and magical. Most of them are inspired by the endless beauty of the natural world and show insects, reptiles, birds, and other animals in a way we’ve never seen them before.
