This real ladybug sits on a handmade rose (mulberry paper) within a small glass jar and a sealed cork top– a very special item for yourself or your fellow nature enthusiast. The charm string is about 3″ inches in length and the jar itself is 1″ tall by 0.25″ wide. The item is made of glass, so please handle with care. For longevity, it is recommended to steer clear of water.
 
The ladybug perished naturally in my garden and wanted to celebrate its beauty in an elegant miniature diorama. After it was carefully collected, it was frozen to rid it of hitchhiking pests and was sealed with a varnish to protect its exoskeleton.

Artwork: Scorpion Mandala

“Scorpion Mandala” is a mixed media piece with Black Forest scorpions, butterfly wings, findings, and shark teeth, topped off with enamel and acrylic paints. The background illustration was created with pen and ink, then digitally colored. The use of the gear symbol atop the branches is a juxtaposition of the natural and man-made world. The painting of the scorpions and collage of elements changes the scope of a ground-crawler to a fanciful creature of magick and wonder.

Silver Rhino Skull Beetle Vinyl Art

This is a mixed media piece was originally created with pen/ink on paper with digital coloring. It was then attached to card stock, sealed (6 layers), cut out and attached to the painted vinyl record. The rhino beetle (from sustainable insect farm in Asia) was painted, glued and sewn to the record. I then attached a few black rhinestones to the piece and applied resin to finalize it all. A lot of work, but very happy with how it turned out.

Seraphim Scorpion on Vinyl Record

This piece was also created with the same method as the Beetle Vinyl piece, with pen drawing, ornaments and resin. The Scorpion is a beautiful Blue Forest Scorpion specimen (also from a sustainable insect farm in Malaysia), painted silver, purple with little black glitter ornaments. The slight change in color makes the arachnid less menacing and approachable.
