    Default May 2022 Challenge: <tetragonisca angustula>

    Let's give a try to this!

    I traveled around south america few years ago, and I discovered a very amazing endemic species of bees, the tetragonisca angustula, also called Angelita.
    A friend of mine is holding an association in Colombia who try to protect them: Angelitas are innofensive, very tiny, and create one of the best medecinal honey in the world.
    I also do this map to send it to him at the end, as a small present to thanks what they in Colombia.

    For this challenge, I wan't to draw a map of the angelitas repartition in south america.
    I wish I'll have the time to complete it before the end!

    Here is the first draft:

    I spent my day drawing and watercoloring and here is the result. I won't be able to push further for lack of time, so this is my final version:

    Hope you like it, I'm not very confident so far with watercolor, but I tried my best.

    Oo, very nice. From the thumbnail I thought it's a giant locust swarm infestation map, but I guess bees are cool too. ;D

    These look like they borrowed a body part from a dragonfly. So I guess in some other area of the world there are fuzzy, striped dragonflies.
