The opening for the group show went great on Friday! I got a slightly better pic of my piece "Eclipse". The show will be up at Prophecy Ink in Louisville, KY until November. Check it out if you're in the area!

I just spotted a little tree frog at work. What a cutie! It has made my day much better. I nudged it off the sidewalk so it doesn't get stepped on.

Base is done for my big moth piece! I sculpted and painted the rocks, logs, and deer track. I sprayed everything with a high gloss sealer to give it a dewy look. Just need to cut out and add my moths and I'll probably be done.

Another update on my WIP. Need to get more paint. I've decided to title it "Eclipse." It is a double meaning. Eclipse can mean a group of moths but also one thing being overtaken by another. Habit loss and climate change are eclipsing nature.

Working on sculpting some elements of my moth wip. I haven't done a lot of sculpting but I think I'm doing alright. Got a deer track, oak log, and rocks done.

Drew a banded tussock moth today. It was a bit of a challenge since they are so small! They only have a wingspan of 1-2 inches.

Here is a size comparison of my cecropia silk moth and polyphemus moth. Im doing the all to their true size (somewhere between their average and max size). Its cool to see the differences.

Got started on my cecropia silk moth today. She is going to take a while! Cecropia silk moths are the largest native moth in North America with a wingspan of 5 to 7 inches!

Im going to be starting a piece based on Indiana native moths and butterflies. Before I start a physical drawing I usually do simple line work digitally to help as a guide. It helps a lot when they have complex patterns. Can you guess what she is going to be?

It's been awhile since I've made anything. Doing some marker sketches today. I was inspired by beerpups last sketchbook video on YouTube to draw with just markers. It's a good way to learn new shapes.
