Hey,

These sketches are from last year. I used watercolours.

I have been interested in insects and beetles since I was 5. When I was younger I read and learnt a lot about them. I liked to capture them and watch them and some minutes later set them free. They are beautiful little creatures and I can’t understand how can somebody be scared or disgusted from them. I love spiders and bees too. I have been holding both of them in my hands several times, but they have never bit me until now.

These sketches are as big as the beetles are in real life. It was quite hard to paint something that small, but it was lots of fun.

Materials: watercolour on cold pressed watercolour paper.

I hope you like my sketches.

Love, Iza the Chameleon 🦎
