Actias luna, the luna moth, is one of the largest moths in North America. Pale green, long-tailed, with eyespots on the hindwings that catch the light like something deliberate. It is entirely nocturnal, drawn to moonlight and impossible to miss once you have seen one, which is exactly what makes it so rarely seen. It does not look like it belongs to the same world as everything else.
This pin started as a freehand drawing, an attempt to capture the moth as accurately as possible while still letting the illustration breathe a little. The 5 × 5 cm format gives the wingspan the space it deserves.
