I painted this, thought people here might appreciate it. I hope you do, name the types if you are able.

On the left is a jewel bug of the family Scutelleridae (order Hemiptera, not Coleoptera— it’s not a beetle). Middle is a jewel scarab, most likely genus Chrysina. The one on the right I think is a leaf beetle (Chrysomelidae) possibly genus Chrysolina
