Origami Bugs and Charcoal Drawings

This charcoal drawing I did during my drawing lessons with my dad.  Its on brown paper and the highlight is white chalk.



Same thing except for it's white paper.



Here are some of the origami bugs I folded out of origami paper and regular paper.  They're my own designs.



These praying mantises are the first thing I made up (except for my simple bug).



These are grasshoppers.  The way you fold them is start out the same way as the mantis except for a lot of stuff.  How I made this up was all I wanted to do was make a grasshopper and I figured that I had enough legs for it.  So, I tried to fold it and it worked.



On this one, you can see how difficult the folds were.



This one is a mantis eating a grasshopper!



This one is two beetles and one red spider.



This one is a rhinoceros beetle.  I made it up.



This one is a spider.  My dad thinks it's a beetle, but it's not.  Because it has 8 legs and 2 fangs.  Why would a beetle have that?



This one I just barely made it up the day I posted this.  It is a origami caterpillar.



And here you can see the sections of his belly.
