There are two novels that can change a bookish fourteen-year old's life: The Lord of the Rings and Atlas Shrugged. One is a childish fantasy that often engenders a lifelong obsession with its unbelievable heroes, leading to an emotionally stunted, socially crippled adulthood, unable to deal with the real world. The other, of course, involves orcs.

A picture I did of Actias isabellae (Spanish moon moth) with gouache paint and a ballpoint pen.
They're found in the Pyrenees and small areas of the Alps. As a larva they feed on various types of pine trees.



Normally I would have scanned it, but the picture was too big. Hopefully I'll do some other paintings of saturniid moths in the near future!  :)
