I spent almost 12 hours so far on a drawing that's making me question whether theres a point to me doing any of this at all

Here's some of the bug themes pins available in my shop kamilaskopinskashop.etsy.com

Here's an illustration of some butterflies ive done a while ago. I definitely need to draw more of them though

Ive already spent about 3 hours just drawing the lines on the wings #illustration #earwigs #entomology #bug

An illustrated informational sheet about goliathus orientalis beetle. Another one that i need to redo eventually #bug #goliathusorientalis #beetle #illustration

If you think collecting original art is just for the rich, you might be surprised to hear that miniatures can give you a collection that does not break the bank. This little bee is just £15! folksy.com/find/item/86... #Bee #Insects #OriginalArt #Drawing #Miniature #Painting #Artwork #bsnm

Its wild how different of personalities snakes can have, although thats very much based on species. My ball python, I love her, but she is a pet rock. The rhino rat snakes however are always on the go, and are genuinely interested in everything around them #snakes #ballpython #rhinoratsnake

An older print now, but here's one of my informational illustrated prints i did a while ago. Im kinda tempted to redo and redraw it, but i still like it. kamilaskopinskashop.etsy.com #illustration #bugsky #etsy #cordyceps #entomology

Was out on lovely walk today. I get really awful seasonal depression in winter so im trying to enjoy the sun as much as I can now that it's finally out. I brought binoculars out with me and watched the sea birds for a while

Not a new illustration but I'm still really happy with it. It's an owl moth. I really want to draw more moths in general, especially some of the weirder ones. #bugsky #bug #moth #entomology #illustration

Happy (Robber) #FlyDay. A hanging thief, genus #Diogmites. #MacroPhotography #insects #Nature #Diptera

My illustration of a pickle slug, Pseudaneitea papillata. It's another one of the drawings where I'm so happy with the shading and shadows but I really struggle to replicate again. #slug #bugsky #entomology #bug

A little while ago a friend gifted me some bees she found and I've put them into little displays. I need to look up the species and put little labels on them but I think they're really cute #bugsky #bees

Here's some of my handmade notebooks, with my bug illustrations that are up on my Etsy kamilaskopinskashop.etsy.com

Here's another one of my illustrations, its a common garden orb weaver :)

An earwig illustration im working on right now. I've redraw it about three times now. I've been doing stippled illustration for about two years now and yet somehow I still struggle with getting it to look right every time I start a new one

Ive tried to do bluesky before but didnt have too much luck. It seems very difficult to start off and find people to follow. Anyway, here's a devil praying mantis I drew :)
