Art/Hubert Duprat

Caddis fly larvae, gold, jewels. Maybe I made a blog post about Hubert Duprat previously, but these tiny golden and jeweled cases are one of the best things I have seen.


There will be blog posts coming about my recent adventures, not quite yet though, I have a lot of work to catch up on first!
