I found this moth in the archive drawers at the Oxford University Museum of Natural History, they let me borrow it so that I could paint it. I was absolutely in awe, that this little moth, roughly 6 cm across, has patches on its wings which look for all the world as if someone has applied gold leaf (or even brass leaf if there is such a thing!). It’s just incredible. He’s grown gold leaf on his wings! This fella goes well with Hummingbird Hawk Moth, they are the same size and framed in matching frames. Painted accurately in rich earthy colours, this is a watercolour painting on professional watercolour paper (Coldpress), dimensions, including frame: 27 x 23 cm

I have always made art in various ways, and earlier in my art career I focused on modern sculpture, often made with soft materials. One of the drawbacks of sculpture is that the use of colour is complicated, but now I love to use interesting colour in my painting, whether to render a life-like reproduction of a person, insect, plant or landscape, or to make a bold statement in my "message" pieces. I love the quality of the ancient medium of paint, both oils and watercolours. I also love to observe and draw the world around me.. there's so much to see, and point out!
