Goliathus Regius

2025 — Watercolour and dotwork

The drawings of this collection are inspired by entomology plates, each with a small label showing the insect’s name. The frame is vintage, so it has a few small imperfections you can see in the photos. I think this adds to its charm and gives the piece a bit of a museum-like feel, as if it were part of an old natural history display. I’ve been collecting these frames for quite a while, and they turned out to be the perfect match for this series.
