Artist’s notes:
The Spicebush Swallowtail Caterpillar was completed on 11.26.2010. While doing some research on some butterflies, I came across this amazing caterpillar. Obviously the color and the remarkable eye spot really jumped out at me. The upside down heart shapes along the insects body also made it a very desirable caterpillar to draw. The illustration is based on a photo by Jonathan Mays
