painting: cicada
June 24, 2010
On the same theme as my last post, here is another creepy crawler insect, the cicada. With July approaching, summertime is when we hear the droning of these critters in the trees. That is because cicadas are eagerly seeking for a mate, after having spent 17 years underground. They may be big in size and overwhelming in numbers, but don’t worry. Cicadas are harmless.

We were overwhelmed with Cicada in 2004. The noise was deafening! Very realistic painting. Good color and detail. Well done!

thanks! it was fun to observe a live cicata. (i let it go afterwards) perhaps they won’t overwhelm you for another 17 years? and yet i see and hear them every summer.
