National Museum of Wales visit 5.11.14

Today I went to the National Museum of Wales to develop my research into my theme further. Whilst I was there I visited the natural history section where I found a large variety of insects such as butterflies, beetles, moths and spiders. I also looked at the exotic plants they had but only found a small number that were relevant to my work. Whilst I was there I took a number of photographs to use for future reference and also done some drawings varying in scale, technique and time spent drawing them.

I was hoping to find some more exotic animals such as birds, bats and small land animals but they only had a small collection there so I feel as though my research will be more heavily based on insects and some plants as I wanted some first hand images opposed to downloading all of them from the internet.

I will be focusing on the color and structure of the insects for the time being until I move onto part two of this module where then I will being to plan and construct my design.
