WOW! The greenest day of the year is coming! Time to spend some gold on Irish whiskey and find a happy shamrock! Have you met a leprechaun today? Wishin' you a wee bit of fun and a lot 'o' luck on St. Patrick's Day!
Mantid on a rose bud was done on Strathmore Bristol with Derwent Graphitint (tinted graphite) pencils. I love these insects and they are all over the rose bushes this time of year. I tried to capture her natural grace and beauty as she stepped down from her rose bud perch while eyeing her prey.
