Inspired: Emperor of the Moon

Several weeks ago I was asked by a friend if I could create an art print of a Moth - This for me was a bit of a challenge, with initially thoughts of the common or garden moth being less than inspiring :) However, it became clear after doing a bit of visual research that there is as much variety in the world of this nocturnal creature as you would discover in the butterfly species. My personal favourites are those with 'feathered antennae' as with the Emperor Moths - the creative influence behind this print series.

Digital illustration begins..

followed by a hand paper cut stencil prior to spray painting
'moon' image. 

Sprayed image with additional paper cut of tree applied/sprayed.

Final hand pulled screen print over acrylic detail.
