Illustrated poster My Moths - Watercolour/gouache techniques
I have been always fascinated by these hairy beasts. I remember as a child I would spend a lot of time in summer at our summer house watching moths coming to our light at the balcony. It was a true happiness if you could see some rare species. They were huge, cuddly, mad and full of life. Some of the moths have only a few days to live, so they live life to the fullest. I reckon we all should take their way of living as an example to stop wasting our time :-) Anyway, enjoy it, hope you like it.
