E116 Clouds
This title shows the various
forms of clouds in relation to their altitude, as this is
important in predicting weather. It also explains that
multi-level clouds are a good indication of trouble. This
poster beautifully compliments our
Beaufort Wind Force Scale
poster as clouds and wind force are major factors in weather
prediction. Poster is completed and ready for publication.
This poster came about by accident. The subject had been listed in
our publishing plan for several years, but had not been
scheduled for production due to the difficulty of subject.
Photographs would not provide the exact representational
images that would be required and clouds are very difficult
accurately reproduce through illustrations. In fact, it is
the weak point of most illustrators. We were seeking an
artist for another poster, which resulted in our meeting a
woman whose portfolio including landscape with absolutely
breath-taking clouds. Such opportunities do not come up
often, so we immediately commissioned her to research and
create beautiful and high informative poster.
It is difficult to teach weather, but so little material is
available. Beaufort Wind Force and Clouds will later be
accompanied by Climate and Weather (now in production) and
Weather Forecasting.
STATUS: Research and art complete. Not yet proofread. |
