🍰 Anyone want a slice? 🍰 I think this one took the longest so far😅 so many cookies! So many WRINKLES!! But you know, the wrinklier your brain is, the smarter you are. Plus, you are what you eat… You don’t want to have smooth brain do you? 👁️👄👁️

🐞 a better look at the Bug Collector print 😊 do you have a favorite? I think mine is the little yellow one or the Hercules beetle

Friend shaped 🥰 yellow is an interesting colour to try and paint with because it’s so bright, but I think it looks good on this happy little beetle friend ☺️ there’s a bunch of these types of beetles with all sorts of different patterns and colours too! Very cute friends

🍭🍬Candy skewers! Do these spark childhood memories? I think I may have had them before and it’s all fun and games until you span yourself in the mouth 🙊 oh, and there were never any eyeballs on there … I think this one is watching you 👁️👄👁️

There’s more bugs to come 😄one more before assembly time! this one was done almost entirely with black and red acrylic ink including a ✨sparkly✨ gold one! Do you have a favorite bug so far?

Another beetle for you! . One more to go and then it’s time to……... ✨a s s e m b l e✨

B u g g✨ the beetle from yesterday is complete! This guy was a time to paint. I think it was because of all the colours blending together but with the help of water and a lot of salt, I think it went alright 👌 .

✨shimmer✨ New bug for the collection! Ive found that the shimmery insects are a bit more challenging but I found my pearly watercolours! What a stylish bug ✨ .

Doing some practice painting before I start the actual painting ✨ it’s been a while since I’ve done any hands or figure painting in general, so it’s nice to try and get back into it. I kinda sorta hecked up the first canvas so ... fingers crossed this next attempt goes well 👁️👄👁️

I love seeing nature after it has rained :) the plants are always so vibrant especially when there’s a brightly coloured mushroom or flower in there 🌿🍄 Im still unsure how I feel about this watercolor paper since it has more texture than what I’m used to, but I have 30 sheets of it now so I guess I’ll find a way to make it work 😅

⛺Adventure⛺ you come across a waterfall, do you set up camp and rest? . >Yes >No >Go for a swim .

✨Yes! I caught a Horned Hercules! Guess I was stronger! Whenever I see bugs now all I can think of is animal Crossing dialogue and when I’ll be able to sell them to Flick.

🍅 ingredients🧄 have you made your own pasta sauce before? I love garlic so I make sure to add WAY more than what the recipe calls for 😉 unfortunately that also means my hands smell like garlic. no vampires will want to hold my hand 😞

Milkweed bug! I don’t know if I’ve ever seen these little guys for myself since I never really looked out for them, but they are such a beautiful colour! I especially like how the pattern on their back looks like a heart 🖤
