Cairns Birdwing

Project:

Look at this beautiful butterfly! Let’s draw it from a real specimen and learn how it started from a very simple egg, turned into a larva, became a pupa and finally turned into a butterfly. The butterfly is a from a preserved specimen loaned by The Spencer Entomological Collection at the Beaty Biodiversity Museum.

My final illustration. What will yours look like?
