CELEBRATING THE MAGIC OF WATER

Welcome to the new issue of Styling Magazine... an issue celebrating the beauty of water.

This new issue is an homage to something incredibly precious: water – the life force that sustains us all. It's the most valuable treasure on this planet, for without it, our existence would be naught. As I pondered the essence of water, one name emerged – Ernst Haeckel, the remarkable German biologist, naturalist, philosopher, and artist. It is to him and his extraordinary depictions of the artistry within nature that I dedicate this issue, aptly named 'Water.' His illustrations serve as a bridge between science and art, a testament to the intricate beauty that flows through the world around us.

A single droplet of water holds within it the power to spark creation – a truly enchanting and profoundly creative substance on our planet. Throughout history, artists, writers, and poets have drawn inspiration from the myriad facets of water – from serene lakes to tumultuous oceans, from clear ponds to rain-soaked skies. In a mere pool of water, a world of movement, reflection, and a kaleidoscope of colours unfolds.

What's remarkable is that no two droplets are alike; each holds a unique identity, much like every individual among us. This extraordinary diversity mirrors the boundless creativity that resides within the tapestry of life itself.

This issue is dedicated to Ernst Haeckel
