I've been raising silkworm caterpillars for fun (and craving to touch a bug in this long isolated winter). I've been raising them on artificial diet, since the mulberry trees are still dormant until spring, and I'm pleased to say they're getting very big and fat.

Good Morning 馃悰 WORM CHECK 馃悰 More big babies are preparing to metamorphose so I can't clean the enclosure the same way I would normally, so please pardon the frass! The second batch is going strong-- I'll try to get some microscope pictures of them over the weekend.

More sketches for my @NHI101x course: A line drawing study of forsythia flowers and a value drawing of a leaf to display understanding of structure. It's still pretty early spring here, though, and we just had another bout of snow over the weekend, so all I could find were these!

It's your sparkly 馃悰 WORM CHECK 馃悰!! The first batch of chokers are getting so big that they are being moved to a larger container! They are eating all their food every day now to build up energy for The Big Change. The second group has moved into their old container, too!

This week for @NHI101x We were tasked with doing drawings in a field journal! My partner and I took a day trip to the zoo to satisfy my need to draw some animals. I have a lot to learn about working in color for scanning, but I think they came out really well!
