Millipede by van-weasel

Millipede

Millipede painting. Paint, ink, and dead grasshoppers.

I should mention no insects were killed for the purpose of this project. These were damaged specimens from an entomology museum that were given to a colleague, who in turn let me select some to work with.

      You should still give it a go if you feel so inclined! Collaging with insects isn't new, but that doesn't mean it's off limits.

    Interesting mixed media use here. Diplopods are lovely creatures.
