I'd always considered insects far more interesting than toys, and I would spend my free time observing what insects I could find. My preferences were beetles, moths, and the praying mantis. Initially, I used only Indian ink, but I learned to appreciate the effects of pencil. I didn't photograph most past illustrations, which is why so few are posted here... but I will be adding to this collection.

I admire the behavior of insects; they function perfectly, like tiny machines.
