Rick also is an artist: I have some of his original fine line bugs colored with watercolors that he was finishing up coloring while I watched at the Quail Gardens show. He'll be in Santa Barbara in the fall at the Natural History Museum for a show. He will even custom color his art to suit you. He also has color photocopies of his work for less. I have one of these of the most colorful grasshoppers in the world and it looks almost as good as the original. I just wish he would do a T-shirt of this.

You wouldn't believe how colorful grasshoppers around the world can be. Even in the U.S., at the historic Fort Davis in West Texas (by the McDonnell Observatory near Big Bend) we walked from the campsite to the restored adobe fort and 'soldier' grasshoppers where flying around us in incredible numbers. Each one colored with little streaks on their shoulders like a soldier's hash marks.
