Kangaroo Island Fossil Drawings Inspire Australian Stamp Series
A new series of Australian postage stamps draws inspiration from detailed scientific illustrations of fossils found on Kangaroo Island, off the coast of South Australia. The stamps showcase the island's remarkable paleontological record through the medium of artistic fossil drawings.
Kangaroo Island has yielded significant fossil discoveries that document Australia's ancient biodiversity. The stamp series bridges science and art, bringing paleontological heritage to a wider audience through the everyday medium of postage. The project highlights the enduring value of scientific illustration in communicating natural history and celebrates the unique geological and biological legacy preserved in the island's fossil record.
