Meet the Artist

Welcome to Enchanted Entomology, a home for the art and science of insect taxidermy! I'm Kate, the artist and entomologist behind the displays! Nestled in the picturesque town of Evergreen, Colorado, I bring the world of entomology to life through my handcrafted creations.

Our Story: Enchanted Entomology is the culmination of a lifelong passion for insects. From a young age, I have been captivated by the intricate beauty of these creatures. This fascination led to an entomology class at Georgia Southern University, igniting the spark that would later become this business. Although this company began from my passion, my partner, Gavin, is a big contributor. He helps with the behind the scenes, assisting with the booth at shows and the never-ending cleaning of glass.

Our Craft: Each display is meticulously handmade with care and precision. My specimens are sourced from trusted wholesalers, antique entomology collections, and from fellow enthusiasts who bring us specimens they encounter. Every insect is pinned by me, and every display is meticulously crafted to provide a simple and scientific approach. I believe that the specimens should speak for themselves, showcasing the remarkable beauty of nature's creations.

Our Mission: My mission is to share this passion and knowledge of insects with others! I love to inspire, educate, and instill a deeper appreciation for the incredible world of entomology. I believe that understanding and preserving these tiny wonders is not just a hobby, but a way to connect with the natural world.
