Wish everyone’s had a great Jewel beetle June! I’ve been busy with a big project (will reveal later this year) traveling and moving, but still managed to finish this piece! I just love those living gems, nature is so colorful 💚🌈

Wednesday the Weevil is available online now! Finally got this cute plushie friend listed, link in bio 💚💚 I really love the adorable snoot!

Got a little bit time to draw a playful bumblebee! 🐝 A recent research showed the problem solving ability of bumblebees! Without any training, they figured out how to roll a ball to a proper spot and used it as a step ladder to reach their sugary rewards.

I’ve been sooo busy recently for any new artwork, but finally get some time for a new Rhino beetle pin design! Let me know which color variant do you prefer! 💚💚

Long live the queens! Some of those eusocial critter queens do have an extremely long life span up to 30 yrs or even longer (naked mole-rat, ants and termites), which is phenomenal considering their sizes. Which queen would you wanna be or serve if you’re a little critter? 👑

New logo! I feel it better represent my most popular bug characters and their styles, but I also love my old logo (it’s a Timelaea caterpillar 🐛 btw) and it will still appear on a lot of my merch!

Big news! My first ever resin figurine Herko is here! From the original handmade clay design, to 3D model and finally this, it was such a long way we went through! I can’t wait to make more friends for Herko in the future, but now you can find them at my online store! 💚

Shriiiimps! Finally another aquarium themed piece since I really love aquatic critters. Maybe I can have a shrimp tank again someday in the future… which one is your fav shrimp?

Happy Weevil Wednesday! I am turning this beloved weevil figurine design into a plushie! The sample has just been approved 🎉

I’ve made a bunch of acrylic key charms, they turned out really cute and are available online now! Link in bio 💚 which one is your fav?

What we bug lovers can do in the Year of the Horse? To admire the humble camel cricket! Known as Zao Ma in Chinese, which means “kitchen horse”, it is the mount of the Kitchen God Zao Jun, and brings good fortune & indicates plenty of food on the plates.

Just a few more heart shaped art I’ve done over the years! 💚💚💚

Have a happy Valentine’s Day with your soul mate, soil mate, or both!! 🌱💚 Those litter critters can be easily overlooked, and may even treated as nuisances or pests in some scenarios, but together they maintain the soil rich and healthy! Which is your favorite soil mate?

I know I haven’t post anything for my clay figurine projects for a long time, but I’ve never stopped working on bringing those little friends to their next stage! I have been busy with learning 3D and developing the first batch of resin figurines! I will keep you all updated💚

“Like a weed 🪸” I have been thinking about doing a piece like this when working on the mossy critters, and now it comes to the weedy friends! Swipe to see if you’ve found & identified them all!

“Do you think you’ll do buzz pollination for me in another universe, even if we are enamel pins?” “Probably not” I’m so glad to get this pollinator interactive pin design completed and turned out so good 🌼🐝 link in bio 💚

It’s probably weird to say that, but I do have a lot of personal attachment to cockroaches. When I draw 1 roach, there are always another 10 more I wanna do! But there’s only so much canvas space so I had to make choices … swipe to see the species list!

Big news! Herkie the Hercules beetle was the first plushie I ever made, and now Herko the Hercules beetle and Kabo the rhino beetle joined this cuddly beetle family! Along with Sushipod, who is super soft and cute 🍣 link in bio!💚

Happy Newt Year! It’s my last piece of artwork of 2025, and it’s already 2026 in a lot of places! I’m feeling so lucky to have your support and I’ll keep sending out my little critters to everyone with the love of bugs and nature!

Can’t believe it’s already that time of the year! It was a year full of changes, challenges, frustrations but still achievements, and I won’t be able to get those things done without all your support! #artvsartist

Like a moss 💚🌱Swipe to see the species and check if you’ve find them all! 💚

New bumble bee pin design! I’m also thinking about making it pin on pin connected with spring so the bumble bee can do their buzz pollinating thing! Let me know if you like the idea! 🐝

ittle critters playing dead! 🐛🪲💀 I’ve been sick after a period of intense work but on the other hand I was able to slow down and draw something fun & relaxing… hope you folks enjoy it too!

Finally, today is the day! I’ve completed a new set of pin design just for Cubaris isopods! I’m so looking forward to see them completed. Which one is your favorite? 💚💚

Is it an angry rabbit shrimp? No it’s a phantom midge pupa! It’s the 8th wonder of the world why this little creature hasn’t got insanely popular yet. Oh and they look like something you’ll see in hollow knight or silk song, which is a plus.

It’s Weevil Wednesday! Weevils are probably the most diverse and successful group of any kind of living things, and their adorable snouts are definitely playing a critical part in their success. I’m happy to complete a new illustration & sticker sheet design for them! 💚🌱

We love jumping spiders because they are smol, cute, active, friendly and always looking around curiously with their huge eyes. But do you know they’re also masters of mimicry? Check out the bugs they pretend to be (and some of those are really good)!💚💚

It’s national #mothweek ! Elegant, mysterious, and incredibly diverse, moths are such fantastic creatures that deserve as much or even more attention as butterflies 🦋 there’s not even a moth emoji yet!
