Have you ever imagined what a flying lobster might look like? It sounds like something from a fantasy story, but nature has already created a creature that comes surprisingly close. The thrift clearwing moth is one of those extraordinary little animals that reminds us just how creative evolution can be. This dapper little creature looks like it’s dressed for a special occasion with black or bronze colouring that gives way to tiny transparent gaps on its forewings, so it looks like it’s wearing lace. How elegant!
If you'd like to buy a drawing of a particular species from me, but you don't see it in my shop, please ask if I have it.
I have dozens of drawings in my filing cabinet, most of them are part of various large commissions
(I usually draw species separately and combine them on my computer when designing the final artwork, together with the text, if required),
so there's always a chance I might have exactly what you need :)

You rarely get a long look at a red squirrel. One moment it's clinging to the trunk of a Scots pine, the next it's racing through the branches with a confidence that makes impossible leaps seem effortless. By the time you've pointed it out to someone walking beside you, it has usually disappeared. Perhaps that's why spotting one feels so memorable.

Do you remember those fairy tales where a giant, ancient tree held the secrets of the world? A tree so magical that its twisting branches reached into the sky, while its hollow trunk opened a doorway to an enchanted kingdom waiting to be discovered?

I'm just wondering – if you are in a bats school and you ask a bat a question, should they raise their hands up or down? ;)
