Happy birthday #entomologist & scientific illustrator Maria Sibylla Merian (1647-1717)! Her stepdad Jacob Marrel & students trained her as an artist. She began painting insects & plants by 13. She wrote, “I spent my time investigating insects. [...] I realized that other caterpillars produced beautiful butterflies or moths, and that silkworms did the same. This led me to collect all the caterpillars I could find in order to see how they changed”.⁠ 🧵

Birds of Light Series - The Patterned Egret Playing with color, texture and pattern, each print is created using a combination of hand-drawn colored pencil and digital media. (100% human-made) human imagined, drawn and painted, no AI whatsoever. On a highly textured background of gold, orange and green, stands a solitary egret gazing into the distance with one blazing yellow eye. On top of its Cerulean blue and Tyrian purple feathers and legs, abstract patterns in similar colors are drawn. NOTE: This description created especially for my lovely blind friend, Georgiana. :-)
