Arthropod Pride

I’ve been working on these over the month- pride coloured arthropods! All are actual colours. In order of row, left-to-right:

• LGBT: Cuckoo wasp (Chrysis equestris)
• Bisexual: Flower beetle (Smaragdesthes africana), Lesbian: Crab spider (Thomisus onustus), Pansexual: Red-banded leafhopper (Graphocephala coccinea)
• Nonbinary: Great carpenter bee (Xylocopa lieftincki), Trans: Tiger moth (Cosmosoma regia), Asexual: Western blue beauty (Protogoniomorpha cytora)

I had so much fun drawing all these wonderful inverts. It was great to be drawing again, and for pride to boot!
