Carol Wickenhiser-Schaudt
USA
"As a watercolorist who started out to be a biologist,
Carol's paintings may remind you of looking through a microscope.
She concentrates on minute pieces of the world around her. People
often overlook the beauty that Carol sees in the small details of
nature, but few can view her paintings without commenting on
these details."
Carol Wickenhiser-Schaudt is a scientist, a marine biologist, whose
work involves the collection, study, and preservation of endangered
animal and plant species.
Largely self-taught in her art, Carol has mastered the demanding
medium of watercolor to produce award winning works of rare and
endangered orchids, and everyday scenes from her world. By her highly
detailed and accurate botanical illustrations, Carol preserves forever
the beauty of rare and natural wonders. At her Web site, she invites
us to learn more about, and to share in, her passion for the natural
world.
"Someday, perhaps, science may locate a gene for botanical
illustration. This could explain Carol's unknowingly furthering
a family tradition..."

The Web
is providing new means for creative expression. One scientist
and artist finds cyberspace is an ideal place to share her
knowledge, art, and passion.

"This is a novel in progress, with new installments added
every two weeks."
Chris Bell is a writer and poet. He is currently writing a novel
on the Web and posts new chapters at regular intervals. Visitors

"...as if a hundred unknown hands are about to lay hold,
directed by minds unknown, purposes discoverable only in end and
object..."
