Laadies aaand Gentlemen! We are SO proud to announce to you, the
discovery of five new extraordinarily rare specimen of spoon
beetle! These beautiful insects are indigenous to Eastern Canada
(specifically the north end of Halifax) where they were originally
discovered by artist Ed Beals.
They are all characterized by their shiny spoon-like exoskeleton, but each has it's own set
of unique identifying features and personality traits:
ORVILLE: A mature and well mannered insect.
Likes living a life of quiet solitude, and is always busy in his research on
the impact of the (not so friendly) longhorn beetle.
JACK: A small, but noisy bug. Enjoys listening
to CCR at deafening levels - his antenna tend to vibrate when he hears a
favourite tune, but curiously enough, they stop vibrating when he hears the
Beatles.
SARA : An incredibly strong beetle, who's been
known to balance upwards of 10 pounds on her back. She has the ability to
burrow deep tunnels into hard plastics and metals, including iphones, and her
favourite, a cool can of kidney beans.
If you'd like to get an up close view of these newly discovered creatures, we invite you to inspect them here at Argyle Fine Art. Magnifying glasses are not necessary, as these particular specimen are friendly(ish) in nature, and can tolerate being held and closely investigated.
