Katy Bratun – Children's Book Author & Illustrator

Alphabet of Insects is a compilation of insects from A to Z with short rhyming verses about each bug. The book is made even more intriguing by the varied artists who contributed artwork, along with a glossary, full-size poster, and sing-along CD. It is a great intro to the crazy and colorful world of insects – creepy crawlies abound…

I recently completed a really fun design and illustration project for an exhibit at the recently opened Audubon Insectarium in New Orleans. Build-a-Bug is an interactive computer exhibit that gives visitors the opportunity to design their own insects for three separate ecological environments including a swamp, desert or meadow. Visitors build a bug by selecting from individual bug parts. The visitors’ bugs are then set loose in the chosen environment to see how well the design is adapted to that particular environment.
