It's not a photorealistic drawing, but I want to know how many of you thought they weren't drawings upon first glance.
Hee! This was a fun little experiment and made me feel a tad better despite my winter blues. For those interested, the species I drew were the Atlas moth and Madagascar Moon Moth.

Well both of those species are Saturniids- so close enough!

Date: 2009-09-21 08:58 am (UTC)Incidentally though, we had Jersey Tiger Moths outside the flat for a while in July-August. They are quite rare. Apparently they travelled down the railway line from somewhere nearby.
Dave says they must have Oyster Cards.

Uh oh...

Date: 2009-09-21 04:05 pm (UTC)It doesn't look quite like that anymore as that was a couple of months ago and I've since had it cut and dyed it several times - but then it never stays any one color for long. I am staying in the purple-pink range these days.

Date: 2009-09-21 09:33 am (UTC)And my brain is definitely thinking of opening a crafty etsy shop for drawings.
