A collection of watercolor and collaged pressed leaf artwork, depicting insects and arthropods-- both real and imagined.

A Cyclochila australasiae, or Green Grocer Cicada is painted on and around a light brown leaf. The cicada has luminous lime green eyes and the green wings pop against the black watercolor paper background

A beetle with prominent mandibles, made from a brown, orange, and yellow leaf. It is painted to have a blue spot in the center of the abdomen on the elytra. The head, thorax, and legs are black with inky bits of blue and brown here and there. Made in the image of no bug in particular, I just let the leaf inspire me.
