HOLY CRAP that is effin awesome! i hate bugs, but BIG bugs fascinate me. 15 years or so ago, i found a Luna moth on my mother's house. it had to be 8-10 inches wide, and a creamy, pearly green. i have a polaroid of it somewhere, but you know i'll never find it until it falls out of some box.

you are lucky! those sorts of bugs only find the COOLEST people to hang with.

"I found Lisa Mikulski to be just the right resource at the right time: focused, professional, with a great eye for color and design, and with very fast turnaround time for getting images up on the web -- an artist's best friend and there when you need her! She's got a really good command of the two worlds we as artists now inhabit: the technical issues of cyberspace in today's market, combined with bottom line issues of artistic judgement. I highly recommend her as a great resource for web design, artistic and gallery management."
- Julia Rogoff, Artist
