Nature

Redmer Hoekstra draws fascinating composite illustrations that merge animals and everyday objects or machines. His imagination ranges from an owl with books for wings to a lizard with computer keyboard scales; at times he even brings three or more forms together, as with a whale emerging from a submarine, the entirety of which has the appearance of a banana.

“Whether you regard the pieces as humorous or slightly disturbing, it’s hard to deny the ingenious way each creature is formed.” – thisiscolossal.com
