David Rogers' Big Bugs!
David Rogers is a artist who works with wood. He does amazing things. His Big Bugs exhibit travels around and I had the honor of seeing some of his work on Wednesday, April 23, before the official opening at the Morton Arboretum.

I counted a total of three ants. These things are HUGE!
I'm glad it's not real. Thought of horror films flash in my mind! The Big Bug Invasion at a theater near you.
How about a ladybug? Artella's own Aunt Bobby draws awesome ladybugs, so here's one for you! I actually thought about our Bug Drawing contest.
Here's lookin' at you kid!
And then there is this adorable Praying Mantis. How cool is this? I swear it is 15 feet tall.
I sat on stone steps as I captured this beauty of a dragonfly zooming by!
I didn't take photos of the spiders and the grasshopper, or the bugs not up yet. I am saving those for a good excuse to spend the day there next week. This wonderland is only 5 minutes away from me. I can't wait to go again!
If there ever was a reason to love bugs, here it is! They're not so scary after all.
