bugs bugs bugs and more bugs!

I have moved away from using ink for a bit as i think there are many other mediums which would create and interesting effect. This image was just playing around with how i could attach each insects to each other.

This circle of bugs i drew really reminds me of a kaleidoscope and if i introduced colour and more detail i think it would produce really effective piece.

The image below is not accurate and really bothers me however ignoring that i like the intricate lines that flow from one another.

I am really pleased with the detail and the organic flows of the lines creating a quite art Nouveau style.

I tried shapes much more angular before creating more of a kaleidoscope effect. I quite like this image but i think i prefer the more natural shapes to disguise the insect as if it was in it's natural habitat.
