‘The Jewel of Moss and Shadow’ Original Beetle Painting on Reclaimed Slate by Liisa Clark
Small creatures can hold extraordinary colour.
Painted onto a naturally broken piece of reclaimed slate, this original beetle painting celebrates the jewel-like beauty hidden within the insect world.
The beetle glows against the dark charcoal surface in layers of vivid blue, turquoise, violet and green. Fine highlights pick out the reflective shell, delicate legs and tiny details of its body, while the natural texture, fractures and irregular edges of the slate remain visible around it.
I love the creatures that are easily overlooked. Beetles can appear dark and insignificant at first glance, yet seen closely their shells can contain astonishing colour and intricate detail. The Jewel of Moss and Shadow is about stopping to notice that smaller world.
The reclaimed slate is an important part of the artwork rather than simply a surface. Its marks, texture and broken edges give the piece its own history and make this a completely unique original.
A striking piece of original insect art for collectors of beetle artwork, wildlife art and natural history, or for anyone who finds beauty in the smaller inhabitants of the natural world.
