Description
I have postcards of this one, and of the other beetles in this series (one still not posted hereThis one is a watercolor from the first semester of 2014, when I was experimenting with a series of drawings of insects. I collect a variety of insects, as some around here already know, but beetles are definetely my favorites
I've drawn this one from observation of a dead species that I have, which I don't know the identification to now known to be diloboderus abderus. It's a very small beetle with a big round horn, which I like to call "Hercules"
He's drawn in a 3/4 angle and with the help of a flashlight (btw, thanks Eduardo for lending it!
Hope you like it!
