2024 Baton Rouge City Nature Challenge Moth Shirt

The Louisiana Master Naturalists of Greater Baton Rouge invite you to join us in promoting the City Nature Challenge and pollinators by proudly wearing this snappy t-shirt!

The Scarlet-bodied Wasp Moth is as eye-catching in person as it is on this bold shirt. This gentle creature rocks brilliant colors and patterns to disguise as a wasp. How cool is that? The plant is the Florida Keys Hempvine which is the host plant for the caterpillars.

Youth and Adult sizes available.

About the artwork

The original version of the artwork.

The shirt and sticker graphics were designed by Baton Rouge artist, Rordam James. Rordam is a Master Naturalist and uses their knowledge of the natural world to blend the natural with the fantastical. Hand illustration with ink is Rordam’s favorite medium, but also delves into others, including the digital world via computer animation, which Rordam studied at ULL.

For your viewing enjoyment, the original artwork from the artist is shown here on the left.

However, please note that on this t-shirt, the colors are reduced to 4 to keep the price down.
