Drawing cicadas for my granddaughter.

As part of today’s entry in the book I’m writing for my granddaughter, I wrote about cicadas. I wanted to sketch or paint one in the book so I was experimenting with different media.

Who knew I’d have this much fun playing with art? I’m still a novice but very much enjoying it.

Two cicadas are drawn, one with colored brush pens and the other with watercolors.A hand-drawn cicada is perched on a hand with a handwritten note describing the experience in Costa Rica.
