Christina Rossetti’s poem which encourages respect of all forms of life goes well with this macro of a green stink bug nymph or an immature stink bug. I had a hard time identifying this bug because I mistook it for a beetle. Then, I realized that it was what is termed a true bug because its feelers have four or fewer segments. That led me to the true bug section of bug ID’s and voila: the green stink bug nymph!

“Deep in the sun-searched growths the dragonfly / Hangs like a blue thread loosened from the sky.” / ~Dante Gabriel Rossetti, Silent Noon

I wish I could remember that first day, / First hour, first moment of your meeting me, / If bright or dim the season, it might be / Summer or Winter for aught I can say; / So unrecorded did it slip away, / So blind was I to see and to foresee, / So dull to mark the budding of my tree / That would not blossom for many a May. / If only I could recollect it, such / A day of days! I let it come and go / As traceless as a thaw of bygone snow; / It seemed to mean so little, meant so much; / If only now I could recall that touch, / First touch of hand in hand—Did one but know! Words by Christina Rossetti Work taken from the Fire & Ice Ephemeral Series II Pryere and Shapiro 16th February 2009

Here’s a portrait I did a couple of years ago of Dante Gabriel Rossetti. Unless the photographer lived into his early hundreds the photo I used is now in the public domain .. I hope :)

If any should force entrance he might see there / One buried yet not dead, / Before whose face I no more bow my head / Or bend my knee there; But often in my worn life’s autumn weather / I watch there with clear eyes, / And think how it will be in Paradise / When we’re together. Words by Christina Rossetti Music – Ravel This painting is dedicated to Napoleon Painting using acrylics, wax, graphite and inks – 102×42cm

9×12 pencil on Strathmore drawing paper This is just a quick sketch I did to study the basic “Jane Morris face style”. Jane Morris was the embodiement of beauty to many of the Pre-Raphaelites including Dante Gabriel Rossetti and her husband William Morris. / I am very intrigued by Jane Morris. In real life pictures of her she is not quite the beauty that Rossetti painted, but still very unique. She was tall and lanky at a time period where curvaceous was the standard and she was bordering on masculine. What did Morris and Rosetti see in her that would later define the Pre-Raphaelite look? / Many of you have probably read that study that stated women are attracted to more masculine looking men when they are ovulating, and more feminine looking men at other times in their monthly cycle. Men tend to always see women from a primal view. In general, our standard of beauty is dictated by our hormones and our primal need to procreate. But I think the Pre-Raphaelites saw something beyond primal in Jane Morris. / Her features, although tending more towards the feminine, are bordering on the androgynous. She is almost a perfect balance of the masculine and feminine. To me, she has the face of what I imagine the angels to have; more feminine but also very masculine. She therefore represents a spiritual ideal, a perfect balance of the divine feminine and the divine masculine. I think this is what captivated the Pre-Raphaelites, and what is still captivating us today.
