Each work of this series has a longer subtitle encapsulating a memory or the artist’s life as it relates to an abiding love of the natural world; a love ingrained in the artist as a child and nurtured as an adult.

Moths are often mistaken for butterflies in the wild, and there are some very showy moths out there! This work is about the joys and challenges of learning to identify species and the little thrill when the hobbyist identifies something correctly for the first time.
