Inspire me Thursday - Wood (Bugs) :-)
This week at Inspire Me Thursday - the theme is Wood. We were encouraged to look around and explore wood in our environments. Well what did I find outside in the wood? Wood Bugs. Trust that I did my research on this - which is why it took so long to post this one.
Anyway - Harriet, aka Woodilus Bugilus (the yellow one with purple polka dots on the left), is related to the common cold germ and hangs out in Sycamore Trees.
The mild-mannered WOODbug on the right - yep, the one with the purple wings is the type that will hang upside down on a dead tree limb waiting for you to leave the house - and then dive bombs you. Watch it.
The one in the back. Well let's just say it's not drawn to scale. It's a huge, frightening mamabug, - she lives inside the wood too. And I'm afraid... too terrifying to speak of, let alone color in...

I love it and the colours great job
This is very cute and very creative. Great job.
Your wood bugs are positively charming!
Lise,
You are one of the most creative people I know! What a wonderful way to parlay at pesty situation...into art! Hopefully the bugs won't "bug" you too much : ) Funny thing...my brother is a certified pest control specialist..and he's an artist too! I can't wait to show and tell your story to him! - Marvelous work, Lise.
P.S. And I loved your story! You're a goooood storyteller. I bet you could weave that into a really, scary story for kids around a campfire one night - heck..it's giving me a bit of the heebie-jeebies just thinking about it! kids
I don't know which I like more...how cute your bugs are...or that you even thought of this. Fresh air thinking!
Great approach to the theme!
