Patterns in Nature

Photos taken for my future Textiles class at college, where we shall use the textures to inspire designs, sketches and fabric art! These include my bearded dragon - Spyro - my rainbow stag beetles, and my larvae (which seem to have grown quite a lot recently!). Speaking of the rainbow stag beetles, it seems I have caught them in the act for a second time, so perhaps soon I shall be expecting some more beetle offspring!
