Educational poster depicting native and protected wildflowers by the Israel Nature and Parks Authority (רְשׁוּת הַטֶּבַע וְהַגַּנּים / Rashut HaTeva VeHaGanim, سلطة الطبيعة والحدائق) and the Hebrew Language Academy (הָאָקָדֶמְיָה לַלָּשׁוֹן הָעִבְרִית / HaAkademiyah LaLashon HaʿIvrit).

From right to left: "Iris HaGilboʿa" or the Gilboa iris (Iris haney), Israel's national flower "Kalanit" or the poppy anemone (Anemone coronaria), "Ḥatzav" or Drimia maritima, "Sayfel Sagal" or Gladiolus italicus, "Turmus Eretz-Israel" (Eretz-Israel meaning Land of Israel, the ancient descriptor for the Jewish indigenous homeland, not to be confused with Medinat Israel / the state of Israel) or Lupinus palaestinus.

Organisms exist independently from states and borders, which are man made constructs. Still, humans have always had complex relationships with nature around them and species can have deep, ancient and diverse cultural meaning for many different peoples at once.

Made this as a gift for a friend who had given into the urge to steal liberate a traffic drum but eventually had to return it back to the wild

i tried my best making up silly scientific names for the genus and species but ah, i dont actually know Latin (elaborations for each under the cut tho)

Basically all of them fit into the genus Conus which i felt was best meaning cone, i couldnt really find a word that translated directly to traffic.

Starting with the top left:

Tall Traffic Cone with Base - Conus leptosoctopedalis

Lepto = thin Octo = Octagon Pedalis = foot

Wide Body Mini Traffic Cone - Conus parvuscandidusaurantius

Parvus = small Candidus = bright (incandescent) aurantius = orange (modern latin)

Reflective Orange Traffic Cone - Conus candidusaurantius

Candidus = bright (incandescent) aurantius = orange

Traffic Drum - Dolium aurantiustantus

Dolium = barrel aurantius = orange tantus = big

Franklin Sports Flexible Cone - Conus flexibilisludus

flexibilis = flexible ludus = sport

Professional Grade Mini - Conus miniumadstringo

minium = mini adstringo = compressed (bind/tighten)

Collapsible Traffic Cone - Conus complicare trānsportō

complicare = fold/ bend at joints trānsportō = to transport

Warning Column Delineator Post - Conus leptosaquapedalis

leptos = thin aqua = water pedalis = foot

Melba Swintex Melba46 Traffic Cone - Conus cedoexpecto

cedo = step aside/ make way / leave expecto = wait

I had honestly alot of fun "researching" traffic cones and finding the different types out there and while i dont really know latin i think i did a good job transcribing the defining characteristics into a passable binomial nomenclature lol

Another piece from my Illustration class. We had to do an educational poster, so I chose snakes.

You’ll notice there are only 2 actual snakes in the poster, since this is aimed at people who are afraid of them I didn’t want it to be loaded with them, which is why I went with a jungle theme.
