I don't have the exact date of this specimen, but it is likely ~100 years old and comes from the Smithsonian natural history collection.  It was filthy when we got it and took a lot of processing to get it this clean.  But it still has most of its color and the beautiful carpenter bee wing color (often used in diagnostics of species). Xylocopa grisescena from Brasil.  Hurray for the many species of carpenter bees as they are pollinators of many flowers and visual connections to Nature for most people.  Photograph by Divya Patel

This was supposed to be a practice to make a final on a larger piece of paper. Took about 20 minutes in my small Pentalic sketchbook; cleaned up some smudges in ‘shop. When trying to scale it up, I couldn’t get the same feel as in this practice sketch; so here’s the draft. What do you think: Should I try again to scale it up? 🌲🌲 • • • #art #artist #ink #landscapeart #drawing #landscapedrawing #draw #landscapesketch #landscape #practicesketch #outdoorspaces #illustration #inkdrawing #quicksketch #trees #instasketch #deepwell #bucket #penandink #blackworknow #cascadia #pnw #pnwlife #pnwartist #upperleftusa #happytrees #micron #brushpen #wishingwell #nowherelandscape (at Vancouver, Washington)
