The beetles are coming

The sketches and final drawing are from my first year at art/design school (2010). We were fortunate that our graphic design course (officially called ‘communication arts and design’) recognised the importance of drawing skills and provided a lot of opportunities to explore different mediums and styles. This was my first foray into pointillism. The composite image on the watercolour background is from the visual diary I put together for my final exhibition in 2012.

  1. This shows me you would make a wonderful illustrator for books depicting Nature of any kind and that requires the fine detail. You must show your work to some book publishers to get commissions.
