The bridge between art and science

In more than one of his essays, Pedro makes the clear point that scientific illustration is neither just art nor just science. It's a bridge between both.

He said the importance of this bridge is proven when dealing with issues like the environment. His work is used for both scientific analysis and general awareness.

As an art, the work that Pedro does can raise awareness to the general public if the species is in danger. All the detail and stunning colours show people what is at stake. As a science, the illustrations represent the factual data.

He says all of this can help change the current problems because it is accurate and appeals to a wide audience
