This grasshopper was caught while out walking the dog and I took it home. In the big picture it means nothing but I killed it before using it in my studio.

Grasshopper
Over the summer I have been drawing a lot of insects, this is the most recent. Currently almost all the other drawings are in a gallery show. I became much more fascinated this summer with cicadas than normal and collected over twenty nymph husks, which they leave hanging on trees after they emrege from the ground.

Portrait of a Young Woman
I drew a portrait of my nephews girlfriend yesterday. I met her at his graduation last spring but didn't catch her name.
