In a 17 step process I draw, paint & cut out realistic looking insects which are then shaped into 3-dimensional sculptures. I use archival grade paper, film, canvas, ink & acrylic paint. The "insects" are then mounted in handmade shadowboxes for display. People often think my bugs are real & are surprised to find they're made entirely of paper.
