BOOK LAUNCH
WELCOME TO THE MUSEUM: INSECTARIUM
September 2024
Published by Bonnier Books, written by Dave Goulson and in partnership with the Royal Entomological Society, I had the pleasure of illustrating the last edition of Welcome to the Museum’s Insectarium. This was a labour of love and composed of hundreds of drawings and countless accuracy revisions. It was a particularly special project given I spent most of my childhood in the garden studying insects, which make an appearance in almost all of my designs. Very proud of the all the work put into this by Bonnier and The RES, who I worked closely with to ensure the accuracy of the insects. Grateful for this opportunity to illustrate such a beautiful book.
