Very well done. Reminds me of some of the nature journals I have seen done in the late 1800's, early 1900's. the detail on the leaf, complement the detail of the bugs.

This drawing is very well rendered.Simple and smooth lines. Details of the bugs well drawn.The shading is just fine. Overall a very good effort.

That is a fascinating story you have written. Really found it interesting. I love these little creatures. I was a gardner for many years and loved to have them on my allotment. Your illustration is more than good its a fine peice or artwork. You capture the mood of ladybirds. The leaf models are perfect. The angles and spacing of them add to the show. A lovely piece.

Beautiful sketch of your ladybugs and skill fully sketched. I like the simplify of your art work and your color palette adds to the beauty of this art work. Nice work blending and shading of colors. I like your border and how it enhanced your work. A creative and talented art work. Nice work and thanks for sharing.

a sweet little presentation of these common insects. Red ! one of my favourite colours to use in painting as it really brings pictures to life and I particularly like your lady bird in the foreground.The structure of your sketch is very well done

Your notes are indeed interesting. I think you did a great job with drawing the ladies. The colors and markings look good and I like how you incorporated their behavior so well.

Comment from Shadow catcher


Lovely rendering of these cute ladybugs,you have captured their personality well.We always have some that end up overwintering in our house,when they start roaming about.we put out a small lid with some jelly and drops of water on it for them. Just wish they wouldn't crawl around on the floor...Great artist notes to go along with this wonderfully charming artwork! LeeAnn
