Gentle World

Here I am again back in the world of butterflies. I love painting these delicate creatures as it allows me to experiment with color and lines. It is a simple design as I wanted them to float on a white background and I let the paint choose its own route giving them the appearance of being tethered to their world. I have decided to do more of these in the future as it's a wonderful way to experiment with color and design.

Delicate Beings

I have always loved to watch these gentle beings in flight as well as perched upon a leaf. They are such a wonderful part of nature. This was a great experience in floating the boarder with watercolor and randomly dropping in the bits of rice paper to achieve the old frame affect. Nature has such wonderful painting opportunities life is not long enough to capture all the wonders but I am going to try.
