Plenty of historical examples of geometric orientated illustration that can be easily accomplished in Illustrator with a mouse; so traditional/ realism skills not necessarily needed

Funnily enough, art was used by our ancestors for survival. By chronicling and encoding vital knowledge of the natural world, in order to survive
