My insect taxidermy journey began by chance. I was walking in a green forest when I saw a colorful beetle. At that moment, I was deeply attracted by its beauty, and the idea of making specimens was born in my heart. After some research and practice, I gradually mastered the skills of specimen making. The use of tools, the choice of materials, and the preservation methods of specimens are all part of my constant learning in my exploration.
Every time I catch an insect, I look at the details: the lines of its wings, the shape of its antennae, even the fine hairs on its body. These subtle observations have given me a deeper understanding of the insect world. I enjoy taxidermy these tiny creatures and displaying their beauty through glass cases. Each specimen is a record of my dialogue with nature. Their existence not only makes me feel the fragility and wonder of life, but also makes me learn patience and concentration in the process.
The process of insect preparation is full of challenges and fun. Each production requires meticulous steps, from capture and cleaning to drying and fixing. These processes require not only skill, but also an understanding of the insects themselves. Over time, my collection has grown, from common butterflies to rare dragonflies, each specimen carrying my story and memories.
In addition, I am also actively involved in some communities of insect lovers to share my harvest and experience. In these exchanges, I can not only learn from others' knowledge and inspiration, but also make many like-minded friends. We discuss the ecological habits of insects, conservation measures, as well as the artistry of specimen production, each other's achievements, and continue to pursue the wonderful insect world.
In this taxidermy journey, I discovered the beauty and complexity of nature. The insect world is a field full of surprises, and I also hope that through my works, more people can realize the importance of protecting nature and insects. Each
