Love is in the air, or I should say on the Oat grass kernels!

I walked by several stands of Oat grass before I noticed they were covered in Soldier Beetles looking for mates or already engaged in the mating ritual. Usually I would prefer to use my 105mm macro lens for insects, but I had my birding lens with me, so I used it at full zoom extension- 400mm. It blurred out the sunny background while producing sharp rendering of the beetles, which were in bright shade.

Very happy with how this turned out, and I imagine there will be many more Soldier beetles as a result of the many couplings happening that evening :)

This was another happy accident of color manipulation.

This was supposed to be a sea dragon (very loosely similar to the leafy variety of sea horse) ... But i could not manage an under-water environment, so i gave the sea dragon (Arthur) a space environment instead. We work with what we've got.

Procreate on iPad

Painted on my iPad in procreate. Seahorse are of the genus Hippocampus, in Ancient Greek, hippos meaning "horse" and kampos meaning "sea monster". Seahorses are not great swimmers so they spend a lot of time with their tail wrapped around stationery objects.

Bored of this restriction malarkey so I decided on impulse to drive to Snowdonia. If anyone believes that a) I'm a very nervous driver on motorways b) I'm extremely flattered.. it's my latest digital art challenge.

This is another tutorial. The real challenge will be doing my own artwork. Equipment used Ipad/Apple pencil/Procreate software (only £9.99 to download). James Julier tutorials which I highly recommended.
